Favorite Atlanta Farmers Markets (yall.theatl.social)

What're everyone's favorite farmers markets around Atlanta? I really like the Freedom Farmers Market. I used to go to the Sandy Springs one when I lived to there.

Any other good ones I'm missing around town?

I usually stop by the Grant Park Farmers Market on Sundays (9am to 12pm) - great produce, but you have to arrive early-ish, as there is now a bit too many people. They tend to take the good stuff first.

I'm hoping that we get a Farmers Market in SWATL sometime...the markets are incredible popular and it seems there needs to be some more scattered around the city.

Didn't they recently move the grant park farmers market? How easy is it to bike to?

I dunno if we'd be able to get there early as you said but I think we'd like to check it out sometime

The market is next to the "Beacon" development, at the end of Grant Ave (https://goo.gl/maps/9zcdhhq3u5Ca7vNX7) - super easy to bike to, but there's only one bike rack, so people sort of just lock bikes together, or to random objects. On the other hand, driving and parking there appears always looks like a shitshow, so biking/walking is the best transportation method in any event.
