Spring Veggies at the Cannon County Farmers Market
The weather has put us a little behind, but the Market producers are starting to make their goodies available. Carmen and Jerry Smithson will be at the Market on Saturday with cabbage, onions, lettuce, radishes and potatoes. We plan to have the Market up and running with multiple producers the first Saturday in July.
The Cannon County Farmers Market is located at the Cannon County Arts Center every Saturday beginning at 6 a.m. Our producers are proud to offer locally grown farm fresh produce. Most Saturdays the market is open until noon or until the farm fresh fruits and vegetables have been sold.
If you need more information concerning the market or would like to become a vendor, contact Bruce Steelman at the Cannon County Extension Office (563-2554), bsteelman@utk.edu or Cannoncountyfarmersmarket.com.
