Each one is held on a designated day and location. The Chattanooga Market is held each Sunday from April to November at the Tennessee First Pavilion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During our previous three years in Houston, I yearned for community type events such as these markets. While living in Pennsylvania, we alternated back and forth from the Mansfield Grower&#8217;s Market and the Wellsboro Farmer&#8217;s Market. I found one such labeled market in Houston that was each week during lunch time in front of City Hall. We went once, and left disappointed. It was less of a market, and more so food trucks and pop up booths from restaurants set up for downtown workers to grab a quick bite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chattanooga Market exceeded my expectations. It is very large with hundreds of vendors. According to publicmarkets.us, &#8220;The Chattanooga Market is a producer-only market. Vendors have made it, baked it, grown it or sewn it themselves.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The front half of the Market is produce, and the back half of the Market is crafts. Some mainstay purchases of ours have become honey, grits and apple cider. A local apparel store also sets up there, and I picked up a few t-shirts. Not to be missed is the Frios Gourmet Pops cart, which was a hit for everyone in the family. Mom got a coconut popsicle, Dad and Derek got blueberry cheesecake, and I got pink lemonade. We also picked up mini pumpkins and squash to decorate our front walkway. In the back of the market is always some kind of entertainment stage with a bunch of seating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have already made note of a lot of things I would like to buy for myself once I am working. Mom and dad also oohed and ahhed at some booths too. You could easily do Christmas shopping for your whole family there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Market season ends in November, it moves indoors for three weeks for a special holiday market. I am looking forward to that! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/48754395611\/in\/album-72157710476348542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48754395611_599d5e32b7_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chattanooga54\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/48754588872\/in\/album-72157710476348542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48754588872_bb47a7795a_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chattanooga62\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/48754590397\/in\/album-72157710476348542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48754590397_10aa60204b_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chattanooga57\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/48754589727\/in\/album-72157710476348542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48754589727_335e3ff9df_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chattanooga59\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/48754589022\/in\/album-72157710476348542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48754589022_4a711b740a_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chattanooga60\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-flickr wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/82942430@N03\/48754395126\/in\/album-72157710476348542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48754395126_92ff651515_c.jpg?resize=800%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chattanooga61\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chattanooga has quite a few farmer&#8217;s markets.
