Reviews for: Chattanooga Market

I support all the farmers and growers of the freshest vegetables & fruits you can buy. I always enjoy seeing and buying from the Hughes, Mayfields & Hazelrig's at the market each Sunday.

It has a great mix of entertainment, food and art on a weekly basis. I can bring the family and there's something for all of us to enjoy.

I can always count on a great atomosphere filled with artist, live music, good food, fun activities, and the freshest produce around Chattanooga. I can always count on the Chattanooga Market to informed me on the best time to buy my favorite fruits and vegetables.

Love the fresh veggies, the vendors with wares you can't find anywhere else, and the warm and friendly atmosphere. I don't mind the 25 mile drive to visit the market. It is a jewel that should make all Chattanoogans proud.

I have supported the Chattanooga Market for years. Nick Jessen was instrumental in getting loyal vendors and patrons alike to support this wonderful open air market full of local produce, other foods and of course, artwork and crafts. The music enhances everything and it is a place to sit back and relax, shop, and visit with friends. Thanks, too, to the new owners who have made the market even better. I miss the Sundays when the market isn't operating in the winter and count the days until its return!

This is my second year as a vendor at the much beloved Chattanooga Market. It's quite unlike any market I've ever seen with its diverse array of vendors. There are excellent and tasty food vendors as well as eclectic and traditional art, many crafts and other goods not to mention the produce. I hate to miss - I've formed great friendships among other vendors and look forward to going every Sunday. Please support us with your attendance and purchases! We owe our success to you, our patrons, and to Paul Smith and Chris Thomas. Thanks, guys!!

Love it! Lots of great veggies, fruit, and meat. And a great place for the family. We go nearly every Sunday.

This is our ninth year as a vendor. We love having the opportunity to serve the wonderful people of Chattanooga. Chattanooga has become a second home to our family.

The vendors are wonderful & my kids love talking to the farmers who grew the vegetables we eat.

I love the market! We've been going there since before my two children were born, and attend as often as possible. Last week I finally became a vendor and the experience was just wonderful.

Celebrating the best of local talent from gardening, baking and singing. Love to take my out of town guests to show off Chattanooga's best. Always leave with a carload of goodies and lots of smiles.

This market has it all - food, music, fun, even exercise! Best source of local goodness and happy people.

yummy produce, great music, interesting and pretty art/crafts...a great way to spend a sunday!

Local produce, products & art. It brings a diverse group of Chattanoogans together & it's a lot fun!

Its a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon-great produce, local arts and crafts, and good music!!

The market is great source of fresh, local produce, arts and crafts!! Shop Local!

The market is a grat place to introduce your product to the community. The market always have many different products that you will only find at the Chattanooga Market I Love It here!!!! Herb

Always something new and exciting. Excellent food and vendors with wonderful wares, and always great locally grown produce. We never go away without something new to add to the house or produce or the wonderful seasonings.

They have such a variety of the themes they use. Love seeing all the crafters and especially the fresh produce. Can't find that anywhere else in our area.

My family loves the Chattanooga Market! It has a great variety of different items, we enjoy the entertainment, and I'm thrilled to be supporting our local economy!

It's the greatest gathering of local talent, artist, gardners, farmers, etc. I've ever seen. What a wonderful way to support local vendors and see all the talent there is around the Chattanooga area. I look forward to it every year and am sad when it's done for the year. Fortunately we are only without it for 5 months. Hooray for Chris and his staff.

There is a culture of local food support at the Chattanooga Market found nowhere else. The vendors are authentic people working to make a difference in the world. It is such a refreshing place to visit!

I believe in the 3/50 rule that Market supports. It works like this, the next $50 you have to spend, spend it in a locally owned business and you will help save 3 local jobs. Market is very customer and vendor friendly and you an support the local job market as well.

i am a vendor at cm and LOVE my time there! They support local and do anything they can to help!!

The Chattanooga Market is a fabulous way to spend a Sunday afternoon. It is a great fun and family friendly environment with great food, vendors with an eclectic blend of handcrafted items and wonderful music

I love the mix of local art, jewelry and veggies! It's great that I can go to one location and support the local economy and small businesses.

Chattanooga Market is lots of fun and has great vendors. Everybody is pleasant and a joy to talk with. The owners/organizers are the best to.

I support Chattanooga Market because it is a venue where people of all kinds can display wares and enjoy each others company. It is so diverse and the stuff changes every time I go. It also makes me feel like long time ago when going to a market was a normal thing to do for staples and socialization.

Great diversity and clean, welcoming marketplace. A family can have a great afternoon there!

I think it's great how different artist can come and display their crafts and love the music and the opportunity to shop outdoors.

I am proud to be an artist, a "Marketeer" if you wish, who exhibits at the Chattanooga Market for several reasons: the Market managers are both professional and caring; Market visitors often become regular customers and some even friends. Overall, the Chattanooga Market offers a safe and fun filled venue for everyone.

It is a very interesting experience, well managed and filled with "goodies'!

I support local businesses and the arts. Chattanooga Market has something for everyone--free admission and parking, charity fundraisers, children's activities, music, food, beer, arts, crafts, produce, plants, and best of all an upbeat vibe and community hospitality.

The market offers a great variety of fresh, organic, seasonal produce. In addition, I love the plants that are available for me to grow my own produce.

It is always so available and fresh foods and fruits and veggies. It is local grown and it is a fun day to spend in Chattanooga.

The market is firm about the "no resale rule"- each artisan has to demonstate his craft during the year and the arts are throughly juried- this is a win-win for every one

Great variety of produce, crafts and baked goods! Wonderful festival atmosphere with really good talent on the stage. And then, there is that fantastic covered foundry building that keeps you cool and dry!

I love the Chattanooga Market; I travel to Chattanooga from Montgomery Alabama at least twice a month just to go to the Market.

Wonderful, relaxed atmosphere to shop a variety of local goods. Excellent produce, talented artisans, more comfortable venue than any market could expect...

Local farmers and vendors ad the best marketplace around in East TN. More choices, events and many things to do with the family every week. Definitely worth the drive from Knoxville!!!

A beautiful Sunday, lots of shade, friends, cold beer, a big climbing wall for the kids, fresh veggies. What more can I say?

The Chattanooga Market is always fun for my family...we can get fresh fruits and vegetables, listen to wonderful entertainment, and eat delicious food EVERY week!

I love the market because it is a good way to get together with friends and families!!! I love going there to have fun and get fresh groceries!!!

I enjoy the market because i can spend great time with my family and friends. At the market there is always something for everyone to do.

I love the market and all the fresh fruits and veggies. There's nothing else like this is town and it's wonderful to have it back this year.

Offers local farmers with organic fruits and vegetables. Vendors include local artists and craftsman. From soap to furniture, it's all there.

The Chattanooga Market is a great chance to meet new people, support local economies and have a really fun day in downtown Chattanooga. The vendors are always so friendly and there is something new every week. I go every week to buy locally made bread, soaps, jewelry and pick up fresh, local produce.

It's a family outing we look forward to every week! Great food, great artisans, and family friendly. Can't ask for more!

because its something to do on a sunday to get out of the house and meet people

I played there in Sept. '08 and enjoyed the great audience and the overall vibe of the Market.

It give me a local spot to retail my art, without having to travel to far away from home.

My friend sells her herbs there! I've seen her pics on FB & would love to live close enough to shop at the market!

I love Chattanooga. I try to visit once a month. The community support is something that every city should take note from. I love this market because it has so much to offer and good people.

I especially enjoy the Possum Creek Herb Farm products. The atmosphere and the ability to help the local crafters, and local farmers in the surrounding southeastern area thrive. I believe in helping local entrepreneurs become more self-reliant. The produce, crafts, artwork, food and beverages are all GREAT!

a fun place to hang out and hear great music, eat good food, and find cool stuff

My first year at Chattanooga Market. It's GREAT. Wonderful place to buy the freshes produce, baked goods, beautiful jewlery,etc. You meet so many nice people. It's a great place to come and have lunch, listen to live music, let the kids play the games and climb the climbing wall and enjoy all the different vendors,and to make the afternoon complete, cool down with a wonderful ITALIAN ICE from the DAILEY'S DELIGHTS....really a great place to visit and people watch.

Chattanooga Market has great food, produce, entertainment, and other products. My favorite booth at Chattanooga Market is Everday Eclectic; they have the most wonderful natural body products that I have been able to find.

it's an incredible market with crafts, food, live music, fun for kids... amazing!

Fun place to interact with your community in a special way and to take pride in your fellow citizens' talents! What a great bonding place!

As a seven year veteran, I can honestly say that even if I wasn't a vendor I would still be at the Market on Sunday... The Market has given families a great place to gather , enjoy the day and reconnet. It has given artist and farmers a place to showcase and sell their products to people that value good old fashioned hard work and pride in their work.So don't just sit there come join us on Sunday . It is habit forming !

There are so many fantastic artists, eateries, farmers, and musicians there every Sunday. My family doesn't miss a Sunday at the market!

I love being able to shop from local producers and artists all in one place. Everyone is so kind and happy.

They provide local produce, local art, and local talent each week with no admission or parking cost. We look forward to going every Sunday to stock up on fresh veggies, grab lunch, and browse for treasures while listening to great live music. What's not to love??

It's the greatest thing that has happened to me as artist-vendor; I'm able to place my art with collectors and sell so that I can travel to Europe!

A fabulous place for local artisans to come share their artwork. It gives Chattanoogans an outlet to share their talents and let others see how great this city really is. The local harvest is a perfect plus!

The Chattanooga Market is part of what makes Sundays my favorite days. You can sleep in, then hit the market and grab your paper, a coffee and look at the local art while you wake up. By early afternoon you can pick out a variety of sweet-smelling local veggies to last you all week, perhaps some grass-fed lamb, a blueberry bush or peach tree to plant in the backyard, catch some local music, and maybe participate in a cook-off. Meanwhile, you run into neighbors and coworkers, your kids are happily climbing a rock wall, and the kettle corn is piping hot - again! What does this market NOT have to offer?!?

Awesome market for both the consumer and the vendor. Chattanooga is a better city because of this market. Great leadership!

Local farms and farmers helping the community learn about the foods they eat and why supporting organic/sustainable farming methods is so vital to our health and happiness.

The Chattanooga Market is a great place for local farmers to sell their food and crafts.

The Chattanooga Market has experienced a huge renaissance since it changed ownership last year. Since then, there has been a huge outpouring of local support for all of our local artisans and growers. The Market has even started a community supported agriculture program that takes advantage of all the local growers who sell at the Chattanooga Market. With over 100 vendor each week and thousands of visitors, the Market continues to be a benefit to our community.

Becasue they support local organizations fundraising by allowing access to the market.

I've been to several markets in the Georgia, Alabama, Tenneessee area, and Chattanooga is by FAR the best. The number of vendors, the entertainment, and the location is great. I miss getting to come every Sunday.

Lots of fun for the whole community and access to amazing, fresh food and unique crafts and music. My 3 year old loves it and so do we.

there is something for the entire family, alot of great artist and priced so that you can get a great piece of art and talk to the artist and still have money for ice crean

The Chattanooga Market is a tremendous opportunity for fun for all attendees. It puts the 'gemut" in gemutlichkeit.

It's the best open air market I've ever been to. The variety and quality of products and entertainment is exceptional.

I can't believe the work that goes into it for a weekly event. It's always exciting and something new is always happening. The produce is always the best quality. The local artist's work is amazing!

Every week the Chattanooga Market offers fresh produce, meats and breads, as well as unique events and entertainment opportunities.

Love the veggies... love the local talent being showcased... love the family environment!

i love what it offers for the city, and for us as a family to shop/eat/and enjoy. we are big fans of the market. we have shopped the produce, plants, food, beer stand, and fruits. we truly enjoy it, and think it is a great asset to the city.

They have themes each week. They work hard to accommodate the crowds. There is a great variety. And they promote everything that is going on so there is a great opportunity to take part.

It offers us a chance to get fresh, local produce and fully support sustainable local farming. And it offers an excellent opportunity for local artists and craftspeople to share their talents and their art with the community.

because it helps all the local artist and farmers display and sale their beautiful items!!

I think it's important to support the farmers and friends of supplying the local market with fresh, healthy food. Besides, fresh produce always tastes better, especially those good 'ole Tennessee tomatoes.

The Chattanooga Market is a great place to shop for local produce and fantastic artistry bargains. It's the ideal place to meet friends and enjoy a Sunday afternoon of browsing and listening to good music while you EAT!

THE best way to spend a Sunday...great music, great food and the ability to support local farms/artisans. It's amazing!

The Chattanooga Market is a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Creative art and crafts, yummy food, and fun!

I love the Chattanooga Market for the variety it offers---fresh organic produce and products, many different food options, great crafts, and awesome music. I especially enjoy the themed markets such as Octoberfest and the Weenie Dog Races!

We love the Chattanooga Market! We are blown away by the variety and really like the opportunity to support local farms and local artists.

What is there not to love about the Chattanooga Market? Each season is not only a different harvest, but a different feel. I enjoy welcoming Spring with some good eats and great music at the market. I enjoy the special events held each Sunday. So many deserving fundraisers to participate in. I appreciate the offerings as far as local artists/goods. This is my favorite place for holiday shopping!

It's a wonderful open-air market that offers a variety of local goods and produce. We enjoy visiting the market whenever we can!

It is such a great way to spend a Sunday! Great music, yummy food, tons of local vendors, and a relaxed feel!
