Benefiting

The Chattanooga Market is the region’s largest producer-only marketplace.  As a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity, we were established to provide healthy, fresh produce, artisan foods, as well as locally-produced arts and craft wares to Chattanoogans and community visitors. We offer entrepreneurs who are hand-making, growing or otherwise creating their own goods a low-cost environment to start, grow and expand their business.

2027 Tickets coming soon.
