Reviews for: Cotton Mill Farmers Market

The Cotton Mill Farmer's Market has the freshest local produce and the friendliest local farmers.

I've been a vendor at Cotton Mill for several years. I love the atmosphere and comradraderie of the small town market place, and I especially like dealing with the customers in west Georgia. Its just a friendly, down-to-earth and fun get together, as much a social event as a marketplace.

The great variety of fruits and vegetables as well as crafts and home needs. The booth representatives are helpful and tell how they raise some of the produce they are selling. Has a great variety of products.

I support the Cotton Mill Farmer's Market for bringing together the surrounding communities and the pure grown foods and fun it provides.

This market has truly average small farmers. Everyone is super friendly. There is a variety of vegetables, homemade goods, meats, etc.. Prices are always great too.

The Cotton Mill Farmer's market is an excellent provider of fresh, organic, local produce in Carrollton, Ga! The quality is exceptional. I go every week!

They are always fresh and quality fruits and vegetables available. All the farmers are very friendly and knowledgable. They keep in contact with us by e-mail which is a great help knowing what will be available each week...so we can plan our menus ahead of time if necessary. I also feel considering the quality ...the prices are very fair and affordable.

We need this option available in our community to have fresh fruit and vegetables. The variety and quality are incomparable.

They always have the freshed vegetables without driving to atlanta!! And the friendliest people, best location, with the most resonable prices.I love having a fresh farmer market in town!

Growers are friendly; products are fresh and delicious when I prepare them; and I know I am doing what is best for our environment when I buy locally.

I love the idea of having access to healthy foods that are fresh, organic, and locally grown, in a wonderful atmosphere.

I love the friendly faces and the awesome products that are offered. There is such a variety from produce to cheese to meats and the list goes on! I am new to the area and Cotton Mill has been one of my favorite finds!

I love to support local farmers and the sense of community is comforting. It is a great place to network and eat well.

Because I love it. I don't work there but my mom does, me and my best friend hang out there, and all the farmers are really nice, and the food is yummy, among other things. The Farmers market is GREAT!

the cotton mill farmers' market is a treasure for carrollton. it has wonderful tasting produce, plants, local honey, handmade gifts, and lots of friendly faces... new this year is the goat milk feta cheese (yum!) and fresh sausage. see you on saturday :)

A great way to meet & greet, and pick up the best food all at the same time.

I love our Farmer's Market. It is one of the highlights of my year to stroll from booth to booth, drinking a nice strong cup of coffee, purchasing locally grown and produce goodies and chatting with friends while music plays and children run. The market always has music or a demonstration. It is truly a community experience. It is one of the top reasons I love living in our great city.

Good, local organic food. It's a small town friendly market w' great produce & great people! I'm trying to be as much of a locavore as possible, buying things to support my community vs big agribusiness.

I support efforts of local farmers/producers and citizens who want to eat what they grow/raise or buy locally.

It is great to have fresh produce and products available and they are all so friendly and helpful

It has very fresh, organic vegetables, unusual ones, fresh eggs, fresh goat cheese, fresh baked bread, and fresh flowers. Is that not a wonderful variety for a small farmers' market? We are indeed fortunate to have it in Carrollton, GA.(I accidently clicked on a cat rather than a dog below.)

I love the variety of produce and goods that are available, the friendly faces that sell them, the great conversation and friendship that occurs, and its proximity to the Sunnyside Cafe for after-shopping brunch!

They have great, fresh food and even some organically grown food. The farmers there work very hard to bring us this fresh grown produce every year. Buying locally allows you to know exactly where your food is coming from. Thanks to all our local farmers!!!

It is a wonderful healthy place to go on sat am. The people are all so friendly!

The food is tasty. The quality is good. The Vendors are friendly. Supporting local economy is a good thing. The market provides a much needed outlet for the community.

It's so nice in a small town like Carrollton to have a local market as an option!

It is one of the only places in the county to get fresh organic produce, and it is a nice place for the community to gather on Saturday morning.

By now I know vendors and the quality produce they sell and that is usually fresh and tasty. We greet each other by name and swap news. Then I have coffee and socialize with friends among the shoppers while we watch the cooking demo. A wonderful way to begin my Saturday.

everyone is friendly they have the best plants, herbs and great cheeses, plus everything is grown locally!

Good fresh wholesome food from people concerned with providing value for quality.

It's great to have a farmers' market bringing us fresh high quality fruits, vegetables, meats, and cheeses, and it gives us the opportunity to support our local farmers.

Very friendly and helpful farmers and vendors. Everything is locally grown,raised or made and each year something new is added.

I love the high quality and variety of organic items, as well as the community of people that support it! It's the best place to be on Saturday morning :)

Good fresh food produced by knowledgeable and committed peopla at reasonable prices. What's not to love?

The organically grown products are wonderful as are all of the farmer/merchants.

This market is GREAT! You can get goat milk cheese, super fresh veggies, home made bread and soap, several kinds of meats, local honey, cooking demonstrations from local chefs, etc, etc.

Fresh,wholesome food and products that are local. We know where our food comes from and know it was grown with care

We love how friendly our farmers are and how they always have such fresh and amazing fruits and veggies and other goodies!

The produce is locally grown and locally sold. Everyone there is extremely nice and the produce can't be beat.

I support the cotton mill farmers market because not only can I buy fresh locally grown produce I can always walk away with a recipe or knowledge about produce! Sometimes my family can even sample so we are more inclined to try new things!

Good food, locally grown. No worries about having to wash it to get the pesticides off.

I enjoy the Cotton Mill Farmers Market because the people are friendly, the food is fresh and priced fairly, and the selection is wonderful.

Anytime you can have local food grown and marketed in your area and do it as well as our market does it with hometown folks who are your neighbors and friends, what more can you ask for? It's great!!

THEY ALWAYS HAVE THE FRESHEST AND MOSTLY ORGANICALLY GROWN PRODUCE! I LOVE THIS MARKET.

I love local produce, and it makes me proud to see the local farmers producing such quality products. And the goat cheese is yummy!

Who wouldn't love local, fresh, organic food sold in a fabulous setting with friendly, knowledgeable people at reasonable prices? You can also buy homemade soap and handcrafted items - terrific place to shop!

I support all farmers trying to maake a living. We need good people in this world this is slowing being destroyed!!!!

They are some really friendly and knowledge growers. They grow great vegetables for a very reasonable price. They all make going to the market a fun experience!

It is delicious, friendly and a new experience every time you go. Such an important part of a growing community.

I love the mix of vendors and the cooking demos and the musicians and seeing all my friends and making new ones . Plus, the wonderful food I take home really helps get me through a hectic week !

They always have what I want in the form of fresh from the farm veggies and fruits. I love fresh meat day as well! The cooking demos and music add that homey feeling that I like. Great job to our Carrollton Farmer's Market aka Cotton Mill!

Not only do the dedicated farmers and other marketers provide healthy, high quality products, they also provide an invaluable educational service. Information about sustainable, ecologically healthy practices is also a crucial commodity. To be able to get great products and to learn about where they came from and how they were produced helps people make good choices about what they eat and even how they live. CMFM makes the community a better place.

fresh organic produce, great fun & friendship, awesome artisan cheese, great "organic" meats, fresh happy eggs, beautiful flowers & crafts !!! Need I say more?

CMFM is not only a place to get fresh produce (organic) flowers, crafts, etc but is a great place to socialize with the local farmers/friends. R

The Cotton Mill Farmers' Market is reliably the best place in West Georgia to buy carefully grown and handmade delicious food of all sorts, as well as wonderful soaps and pottery. It is a community of people who are passionate about how they live their lives and about their market. It is the place to be on Saturday mornings in Carrollton.

It is just refreshing to know you have supported local farmers. One day it is in the ground and the next on your table.

It's a great place for great produce and food, but even more as a community gathering of friends and neighbors. And who wants to go to the grocery store on Saturday morning when you can be outside?

Cotton Mill Famers' Market is a delightful place to be on Saturday morning. Taking home organically grown fruits and vegetables brought to market by local vendors is the best. I love the flowers, pottery and just everything that is so beautifully presented at the market.

It is the heart of our community and the Best place to be every Saturday! Family farmers become friends as they nourish us in food and fellowship. There is always inspiration to be had from the food, flowers, jewelry, plants, pottery and more.... I am truly grateful!

Because really take the time to answer your questions and try to get what you want. After going there for a few months, they know my name and my kids and just so friendly. I love that ALL the vendors are local and organic! It is the place to be on Saturday mornings in Carrollton!

This is a wonderful gathering of locals each Saturday morning to enjoy the fresh foods and fellowship.

It is convenient to where I live. There is a variety of foods to choose from; particularly pasture-fed beef and pork. The honey vendor was particularly helpful when I had bees infesting my house siding. All vendors are friendly and willing to answer any questions. There is a nice sense of community at this market. The vegetables, foods, and gift items are great! I really like the newsletter that is put out, as it is extremely helpful in preparing my weekly purchases and keeps me on track for eating as organic as possible.

I love the atmosphere of an open market where one may visit with friends, both customers and venders. We have a most interesting community of folks who are into growing and cooking locally grown produce. Where else can one find an avocado seed handcarved necklace and organic granola that is to die for. I open mine and go around offering a taste to my friends....and the fresh corn and earlier the sugar snaps...and the accordian music by an authentic Frenchman.....Yes, he is imported, but he's a natural.

Early every Saturday morning during the summer growing season, my husband and I walk the block to the farmer's market excited about what produce and flowers we might find there. We buy all our produce for the week there and even have recipes that we have collected there and elsewhere that take full advantage of the summer bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables as well as the fresh meats and cheese and other products we find there. We usually buy fresh flowers to complete our shopping trip. We look forward each year to opening day!

Locally grown food is healthier - few chemicals, follows macrobiotic ideas about eating what is in season, helps local farmers, feeds the local economy, is a great social event unlike any supermarket. Growing food should not be a global, corporate enterprise.

Wonderfully fresh produce and products and friendly neighbors greet me every weekend. It is a gathering place on Saturday for many folks from Carrollton and the surrounding area.

It is local, organic, and always fresh. It is in a easy access location and always has great variety.

fresh local produce, products and advice. Hopefully will keep a "green belt" of farms around the town.

It is such a wonderful place - I often run into friends and neighbors and it absolutely starts off my Saturdays on a fabulous note. The fresh vegetables and other food starts my week off in a right and helps keep me inspired to eat healthy, wonderful food all week. The vendors often give me tips on storage and cooking. I love our farmer's market!

It has great local, organic produce, plus wonderful local arts and crafts, and it frequently includes an educational event and/or musical entertainment. Oh yeah - and the farmers are all fun and friendly people!

The variety and freshness. Love the cheeses, both cheddar and goat's. The vendor are friendly and sometimes have recipies. I see all my friends there.

The produce is excellent and there is a wide array of other value added products from artisan goat cheeses to soaps and honey. Often there are local chef demonstrations and tastings. It's the best meeting spot in town!

I LOVE to support LOCAL!!! Not to mention everything I've bought has been SUPER YUMMY!!!

These farmers give their time not only in the hard work it takes to start & sustain a garden, or farm but they give their time to help the community be much healthier & not to mention help stimulate the local economy. Also, I'd like to say, they are always friendly & that makes me look foward to going the the Cotton Mill Farmers Market!! Edith Steele

In addition to having wonderful food and being a great social occasion for our town, the vendors donate leftover produce at the end of the day to local agencies for the hungry.

A wonderful local farmer's co-op that benefits the community and community building!! Love buying my produce local!

Cotton Mill Farmers market has the greatest farmers and their products are great!

It really supplies the best produce, new products (like local goat cheese), music one week, salsa one week, and opportunities to see friends and visit over shopping. The organization is superb. What could be better?

It has been instrumental in supporting and promoting our local food movement in Carroll County. We even had a puppet show last weekend!!!! How great is that?

The market has the best tasting and most healthful food I can buy.It also provides a wonderful sense of community that enriches our lives.

It's convenient, supports local sustainable harvest and is a great source for fresh products.

Even though we have a garden of our own there is always things there that we don't grow. The people are wonderful and helpful

The majority of the produce is organic, and I can taste the difference! Everything is super fresh. Farmers get up in the very early a.m. to be sure we have fresh-picked fruits and/or veggies. This market has everything from goat cheese to a zillion different types of tomatoes, peppers, pink-eyed peas, goat milk soap, all types of beans, edamame(:-), squash, corn, etc. But above all, these people are so delightful in sharing their knowledge in helping the small-time gardener learn how to improve his/her own small garden. Early bird gets the worm, though! All the lettuce in the hot summer goes early!

I think it is wonderful that Carrollton has the Cotton Mill Farmer's Market each Saturday. I love being able to purchase organcally and locally grown fresh vegables, plus some many other surprises offered by vendors. I love the fresh flowers and plants also.

It has great produce and other foods and keeps us from driving into the big city ! ; and you have to respect the local growers for their commitment and dedication to providing their community with fresh, affordable food. It's the Victory Garden on Steroids !!

I eat and grow locally sustainable food and the Market is the best avenue to get it into the hands of the people. Locally grown not only saves time and money for the buyers and brings us great food, but saves tremendous costs of trucking in produce from who-knows-where; not to mention "we know where you live - err - grow !!" ha-ha-ha The Cotton Mill FM has grown so much and delivers so much to our community, it is hard to envision our area with-out it now ! As some have mentioned, it is now a Sat morn social ritual as well as a shopping mecca.

The fresh food just tastes better than store-bought vegetables,fruit, eggs, cheese. Vendors sometimes give recipes and encouragement to try new dishes using their fresh vegetables. Last week Hager/Crager Farm suggested we try an omelet with the sorrell we were buying - and it was the best omelet of the year. And the market is an enjoyable social event to kick off the weekend.

It is great to have this local market for our farmers, and the freshest and healthiest produce for our families. Gwyn Chesnut

The market is a God-send. Not only do I find great fresh vegitables and cheeses and baked goods, it has become the place where I connect and reconnect with people I truly cara about. We share a lot of information about everything under the sun.

This is the best market around.. I recently relocated to the Savannah area, and I miss the Cotton Mill Market so much! The farmers and artisans are friendly and helpful, believe in what they are doing, and they are the pioneers of the local movement.

I support our local farmers and love the fresh vegetables, cheese, flowers and samples!

Great selection, variety of products from fresh produce, to soaps, to cheese..etc. Go Early!

Always a pleasure to shop there. Great, knowledgeable folks with fresh, beautiful produce. Always quick to offer a recipe, too!

It is an awesome way to spend a Saturday AM going down and hand picking, produce, meats and cheeses, to run as apecials in my restaurant, Naturally rasied, sustainable and the farmers and growers are the most awesome friendly people

Everyone is so friendly. The produce is presented well. There are other products offered which are also high qualitiy. THUMBS UP

I support the Cotton Mill Farmer's Market because home grown fresh is always better than what is offered in the stores. I have allergies and it's important for me to know what is (and isn't) put on the foods I eat.

I am an avid supporter of locally grown food, organically grown, and the farmers at the cotton mill market are more than happy to tell you about the nature-based methods they use in growing their food. I have heard about bunny manure, and chicken and horse too of course. These farmers work hard at taking good care of the land, rotating crops, natural fertilizer and pest-control methods. There is even hormone and antibiotic free pork, and beef. They are hard working people who are doing the right thing for the rest of us who are extremely appreciative! Veronica Pelaez

One of my favorite ways to spend a Saturday when I lived in Carrollton was to walk to the suqare, get a cup of coffee then shop the farmer's market. All the fresh veggies and fruits and homemade goodies were tempting and amazing. I really miss that little market!

Love to support my local farmers and business folks, everyone who participates is friendly, generous and happy to talk about local farming and events.

Too awesome with the freshest produce and fine people who make it worth getting out of bed early on a Saturday morning!
