City of Alpharetta Recreation, Parks, Cultural Services

Saturday mornings are made for the Alpharetta Farmers Market! 🍅🧺

From 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., stroll through 2 Park Plaza in Downtown Alpharetta, browse dozens of local vendors, and discover everything from farm-fresh produce and artisan baked goods to 🌻 locally made favorites.

Bring the kids. Bring your dog (on a leash). Bring your grandma. She’ll probably know which tomato is the best one anyway.

Did you know? SNAP benefits are accepted. Stop by the Information Tent on North Broad Street to learn more.

For more information, visit Downtown Alpharetta Farmers Market. See y’all Saturday!

What if your backyard garden could help feed a neighbor? 🌱

The Homegrown Harvest Program is a partnership between the Alpharetta Community Agriculture Program and North Fulton Community Charities that turns backyard gardens into a source of fresh, healthy food for local families.

Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just getting started, we'll provide seeds or seedlings, compost, harvest supplies, and gardening workshops to help you grow. When your produce is ready, simply log your harvest in the Fresh Food Connect app and deliver it to North Fulton Community Charities.

Already have a productive garden? We'd love your surplus harvest, too! Just mention it in your application, and we'll get you connected.
