Help Sustain the Athens Farmers Market!

If this market has meant something to you, now’s the time to help us sustain it and grow it for the future.

For over a decade, Athens Farmers Market has been more than just a place to buy fresh produce; it’s been the heartbeat of our community. Week after week, neighbors gather under the trees, children dance to live music, chefs shake hands with farmers, and families fill their bags with food grown just down the road. We’ve created a space where everyone is welcome, where food is local, seasonal, and accessible, and where relationships, not transactions, are at the center of it all.

Now, as we face rising costs and increasing demand, we’re turning to you, our community, to help sustain and grow this work. Your support helps ensure that Athens Farmers Market remains a thriving, inclusive, and nourishing space for years to come.

Beyond the market stalls, AFM drives a healthier, more connected Athens. Our programs, like FARM Rx and SNAP doubling, stretch food budgets while improving health outcomes. Our vendor support efforts help small businesses launch and grow. And our commitment to equity ensures that everyone, regardless of background, zip code, or income, has the opportunity to participate in our local food system.

This work is only possible because of the generosity and belief of people like you. If Athens Farmers Market has ever fed your family, introduced you to a favorite farmer, or brought you joy on a Saturday morning, now is the time to give back.

Your donation—no matter the size—directly supports food access, local farms, small businesses, and community health. Together, we can ensure that this space remains vibrant, inclusive, and deeply rooted in what makes Athens special.

Donate today to help sustain Athens Farmers Market—for farmers, for families, and for the future.
