About
The Decatur Farmers Markets boast proud residents and neighbors who are all about keeping it “Indie-Catur.” This market is a cornerstone for the local, independent movement for this ultra-connected community. The Decatur markets joined the CFM team in 2013, and is thriving with the support of the local community. While previously open on both Saturday and Wednesday, as of 2020 we’re continuing the Wednesday market and have moved Saturday’s market to the neighborhood of Oakhurst, Decatur (at Sceptre Brewing Arts, 9am-1pm).
The Decatur Farmers Market is located at 308 Clairemont Ave, on the corner of Commerce Street, held on the front lawn. With plenty of space to sit and enjoy the outdoor market, it’s a perfect place for families to gather and play. Look for the tents; you can’t miss us!
Dog Policy: We are dog friendly, but please have your pups on a leash and ensure that they are well-accustomed to other dogs and children. Owners are responsible for picking up after their dogs. View our full dog policy at the bottom of the page.
Covid-19 guidelines: CDC recommends wearing a mask if you are not fully vaccinated. We have hand sanitizer available at the info booth, and most vendors offer contactless payment options.
Parking
Market attendees should park in the church parking lot on Clairemont Avenue. Parking there is free and amble with easy access to the market. Look out for the parking signs and attendants!
Starting at 4:30PM, visitors will also be able to park in the upper parking deck next to the church at Commerce Drive for free. Lower parking deck is always free (enter from Clairmont).
Georgia Fresh for Less: We Match Your SNAP Dollars
Thanks to our partnership with Wholesome Wave Georgia, we match SNAP/EBT dollars with an equal amount of tokens for fruits and veggies. When you spend $10 of EBT, you get $20 worth of fresh, local food. Our wooden EBT tokens can be used on any EBT-qualifying food item, and our matching green tokens may be used to purchase fruits and vegetables only.
All you have to do is:
- Come to the market information tent.
- Swipe your EBT card. You’ll received wooden tokens for the amount swiped, and an equal amount of green tokens to be spent on fruits and veggies.
- Spend your tokens on delicious, fresh food and meet your farmers, vendors and neighbors!
