Tune Farm’s Table at Madison City Farmers Market in 2012
About the Market:
The Madison City Farmers Market (MCFM) is a truly local market, offering products that are grown or made in the Tennessee Valley. The MCFM is a producer-only market and governed by local farmers and consumers. Everything sold at the market is grown or crafted by local farmers and craftspeople within 100 miles of the market. The market gives priority to farmers and farm products, but also includes handmade and homemade crafts, products and foods by local artisans.
The market changes from season to season and will expand and contract to allow all that is fresh, local, and plentiful. While meats, eggs, cheeses, milk, honey, baked goods and local crafts are available from spring to fall, the seasons bring exciting changes and variety each month. In the Spring the market explodes with fresh strawberries, tender greens, herbs and bedding plants. Summer brings bountiful supplies of tomatoes, berries, peaches, corn, summer squash and watermelons. Transitioning into fall, sweet potatoes, leafy greens, winter squash and pumpkins abound. Located at Trinity Baptist Church – 1088 Hughes Rd, Madison, AL – Saturdays, April – November
About the Market:
The Pepper Place Saturday Market was established in 2000 in response to a growing need to help small family farms, and provide a connection between these family farmers and the people of Birmingham, Alabama.
All vendors are local, from a rough geographic range of about 100 miles. The Market expands and contracts with the seasons, ranging from wonderful bedding plants, herbs, lettuces and strawberries in the spring to summer’s blackberries, blueberries, peaches, sweet corn and an array of heirloom and hybrid tomatoes. As we progress into fall, we see a variety of squashes, sweet potatoes, greens, pumpkins and wonderful greenery to decorate for the holidays. We also have cheeses, eggs, meats, honey, breads, pastries and sausages from an array of vendors. Located at 2829 2nd Ave. South, Birmingham, AL – Saturdays, April – December
