Athens Farmers Market is a specialty food store in Athens, Georgia. It is listed at 705 Sunset Dr, Athens, GA 30606, which places it among the local businesses of Athens that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

Asian grocery stores and supermarkets stock ingredients, snacks and household goods that general American supermarkets often do not carry, organized by category rather than by country of origin in most stores. Produce and live or fresh seafood sections are usually at the back or side of the store, and weekend mornings bring the largest crowds and freshest restock. Many larger Asian supermarkets include a hot deli or food court counter selling prepared meals by the pound or as fixed plates, useful for a quick lunch while shopping. Labels are frequently bilingual or untranslated, so store staff can usually help locate a specific ingredient if you ask. Cash, cards and mobile pay are all commonly accepted at larger chains; smaller specialty shops may be cash-preferred.

The business lists hours on 1 day of the week. The most common schedule is 8 am–12 pm. It is closed on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday.

Athens is in Georgia, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. Traffic in Athens peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Third time this summer. Best place to be in the Summer afternoon. Good beer, food and live music. Most people visits are regular visitor.

Response to owner: I'm sorry but I have to correct you. The vendor Rebakery who sells the macarons does in fact use artificial food dyes. It was transparent, because it was listed on the label from the flavors we bought. But several of the options had it. The vibe here was great. Nice space with covered shopping. There were 3 or 4 butcher style trucks so if you need proteins be sure to bring an ice packed cooler. I was a little disappointed in the variety of vegetables though. Almost all the farmers were selling the same vegetables and the only fruit available was some small watermelons. I was actually shocked that there was only 1 vendor with GF bakery options and some of the baked goods had artificial food dyes 😬. Overall it was ok and we went home with veggies, sourdough, a few baked goods and a really bad Americano cup of coffee. Wouldn't come back though.

Big farmer's market. Nice to the southern local businesses bloom in a small city like Athens. Seen a lot of unique stalls like candles and jewelers. On the other hand typical farmers market stuff like meat, eggs, & produce. What caught my eye was the Sri Lankan food stall that also sold some Indian items like Vada and Mango lassi. The people were very cordial, patient, and welcoming. However, I would have to say, everything in the market was ridiculously expensive for a small city like Athens.

Went last year for the first time. Went again today and there seemed to be less vendors. Prices are super high. Yes, I know it's local and all, but I'm just stating facts. $8 will get you a pound of tomatoes or a dozen eggs. $20 will get you a pint of honey. It gets super crowded early. We bought turkey legs for the dogs, some produce and some really good sourdough and a cinnamon roll. I'm probably good for one visit per season...

Best farmers market. Several farms represented, produce, beef, chicken, eggs, everything you need. Art and gifts from multiple vendors. And you can’t leave without some of the best jelly I ever had
