Farmers Market

Join us under the old oak trees in downtown Savannah's Forsyth Park every Saturday. We are located at the south end of Forsyth Park at the intersection of Bull Street and Park Avenue. 

Saturdays,  9:00am until 1:00pm

January - December

Open virtually year around. 

 

Features

Savannah's food-only, producer-only market where ~30 vendors on a given Saturday offer fresh produce, pastured meats, local honey, artisan dairy and cheeses, craft breads and baked goods and a wide variety of prepared foods. All vendors come within a 200 mile radius of Savannah. Read about our vendors here. 

 

Payment

Cash, credit, debit, and SNAP/EBT.

All vendors accept cash. A few vendors also accept debit/credit cards. FFM offers a token-exchange system to accommodate those without cash. 

 

Token system

The main market table on Saturday accepts debit, credit, and SNAP/EBT in exchange for non-refundable tokens that do not expire. We also double SNAP/EBT dollars. Find out more information here.

You probably know that Forsyth Farmers' Market doubles SNAP benefits. But did you know that since 2013 this program has put $331,000 worth of produce at half price into area families who need it most? That's also over $331,000 invested into local farms and small businesses. We are happy to operate this program in conjunction with Wholesome Wave of GA. Wholesome Wave of Georgia pays for 60% of this program and we provide the remaining 40%. To continue to support this program, please join our friends program by clicking the link in our bio.
