East Lake Farmers Market is located at the corner of 2nd Ave & Hosea Williams, at the convergence of the East Lake, Oakhurst, & Kirkwood neighborhoods. Last year East Lake resident Doug Williams started the farmers market against all odds. “We got the green light at the end of March, & managed to pull together a small but great group of vendors to participate by mid-May, operating all season on a tiny budget” Doug explains, who set-up the market every Saturday for 26 weeks. Each week, over 100 neighbors from around the area supported the market.

Many improvements are underway for the 2010 ELF Market season, which opens Saturday, May 1st with a ‘Collard Greens Cook-Off’ benefitting Hosea Feed the Hungry, including purchasing EBT equipment that will enable the use of food stamps, making healthy produce more available to all. Community fund raisers, live music, & market demonstrations are being planned throughout the season.

The ELF Market is now accepting donations for the 2010 season.
