Statesboro Main Street Farmers Market Set to Reopen in April: More Vendors, Fresh Local Produce, and Community Fun Await

Visit Statesboro is gearing up for another year of growth after a successful previous year. The Market at Visit Statesboro is scheduled to reopen on April 6, offering locally produced goods every Saturday from April to November. The 2024 season is anticipated to have more vendors, offering a wider variety of fresh produce, homemade items, and artisanal goods.

Becky Sanders, President and CEO of Visit Statesboro, highlighted the role of the Statesboro Main Street Farmers Market in the community. It serves as a platform for local farmers and artisans to display their products. Besides providing fresh, locally sourced produce, it also acts as a community hub, supporting small businesses and celebrating the region's agricultural heritage.

The local farmers market has seen several changes in recent years to enhance the experience for vendors and consumers. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic leading to a temporary closure of the physical market, the Market2Go business flourished, thanks to the support of Statesboro residents. The market venue has been updated to include indoor and outdoor stalls, accommodating more vendors and shoppers.

The previous year's opening day saw nearly 2,400 visitors from cities including Atlanta, Athens, and Brunswick. This high attendance and sales underscore the Farmers Market's economic contribution to Bulloch County. The Saturday Market has become a weekly event that brings the community together.

The Statesboro Main Street Farmers Market remains a place for locals to connect, discover local products, and support local farmers and businesses. The community is urged to continue supporting these local producers, who are committed to supporting Statesboro.
