Description
The Chattanooga Market is the region's largest authentic outdoor market - just ask the locals! Celebrating our 10 year anniversary in 2011, we hold high standards when it comes to our "Local is Better" slogan. Our producer-only market represents approximately 5,000 acres of regional farms and dozens of local food manufacturers. Fresh on Sundays folks find an abundance of fresh fruits, herbs, flowers and garden-ripened vegetables; gourmet beef, chicken, sausage and pork, lamb, and goat; cheeses, artisan breads, honey, fresh-roasted coffee, small-batch jellies, salsas, candies, fudge, cakes and more. Every Sunday at Chattanooga Market has a unique theme, often highlighting a charity or local tie-in. Examples of these are Mayfield in Pink, Live United, CultureFest and many more. It's our constant mission to give back to our community and provide a platform for our non-profit partners to increase awareness. In 2010, Chattanooga Market contributed in raising over $200,000 for these local non-profits. The Chattanooga Market is the region's largest authentic outdoor market - just ask the locals!
