Peach Festival at Chattanooga Market – July 11th

Melissa Lail — Tue, 06 Jul 2021 15:38:57 +0000

For Immediate Release – The 2021 season at Chattanooga Market is just about at its mid-point. It is also the peak of produce season when berries, tomatoes, lettuces, peppers, okra and so many other fresh picks are available.

This Sunday, peaches will be front and center. Market visitors will find peach farms with a variety of peaches ready to take home. Adding to the festival, Market vendors will join in the theme to create other products utilizing fresh peaches: lemonade, cobbler, lotions/candles, salsas and more.

For peach aficionados, on hand will be Sierra Gem freestone peaches (Melon Patch Farms), July Prince freestone peaches (Hazelrig Orchards and Watsonia Farms).

Sunday Funday would not be complete without live music on the Lodge Cast Iron Sizzle Stage. Performing on Sunday, July 11th: Tyler Martelli and Friends beginning at 12:30pm.

Both Collegedale Market and Chattanooga River Market continue throughout the summer. Each features a unique vibe and alternate location. Collegedale Market is a morning farmers and artists market open Sundays 10am-2pm. Held at The Commons in Collegedale, it’s a smaller version of the well known downtown Market. Chattanooga River Market is primarily an artists market, with some take and go artisan foods as well. That Market is on the Tennessee Aquarium Plaza from 10am-5pm each Saturday.

June, 2021

We’ve arrived…here it is, that sweet spot of the season. Each week we’re surprised by what the farms bring to us at Chattanooga Market. The past week or so, we’ve been seeing okra, corn, tomatoes, peaches, squash, lettuces and blueberries. The Market—the vendors— we are thriving again post-COVID, thanks to the community support.

What does June look like at Chattanooga Market? More fresh produce, for sure. Father’s Day is June 20th and we do a pretty darn good job of celebrating dad at the Market. It’s a Blues and Brews day ( by the way, have you tried our Sunday Funday craft beer yet?) featuring none other than Rick Rushing, live on the Lodge Cast Iron Sizzle Stage.

Put a note in your tickler file, we’ll be celebrating the 4th of July BIG—stayed tuned for details!

We’ll see you Sunday!
Chris and Melissa

VENDOR SPOTLIGHT!

Jeff Fulkerson started making jewelry at the age of sixteen, when turquoise was just becoming a hot item. He had been a model-building prodigy from the age of five, and when he saw his cousin wearing a Navajo bracelet, he went to the workshop and taught himself to craft silver. The first ring he ever made was quickly sold, and thus began a lifelong passion for making people (and outfits) look fantastic.

SATURDAYS 10AM – 5PM Tennessee Aquarium Plaza
