- Summer market: Every Thursday, May 14 to October 29, 2026, 3:30 to 6:30 PM. City of Flowery Branch: Farmers Market
- Winter market: The 2nd and 4th Thursdays, November to April, 3:30 to 6:30 PM (the City states the pattern; 2026 to 2027 dates are not yet on its calendar). City of Flowery Branch: Farmers Market
Market days are worked out from the season rules on the City of Flowery Branch farmers market page and calendar, checked 2026-10-17. The market's own site and the City calendar give 3:30 to 6:30 PM; the City FAQ says 3:30 to 7 PM. The 2026 to 2027 winter dates are not on the City calendar yet, and last winter the market skipped some dates, so treat winter days as likely, not certain.
Making a Thursday of it? The day planner puts the market, Main Street and dinner in walking order.
Where and when

6:30 or 7 PM? The closing time conflict
The City’s own market page disagrees with itself. Its calendar and the market’s own website say 3:30 to 6:30 PM. The FAQ on the City’s market page says 3:30 to 7 PM. We have not been able to settle it, so our checker uses 6:30 PM, the time two of the three sources share. If you are coming after work, aim to arrive by 6:30. To confirm, call the City at 770-967-6371.
Who runs it and what is sold
The City’s market page says the market has over 40 vendors and is run by Renee Carden in cooperation with the City. It lists fresh produce, jams and jellies, honey, bread, pies, cakes, cookies, dog treats and crafts. Some vendors may also sell eggs, dairy, meat or plants when they hold the right licenses. Resale is not allowed, and there is live music on market days.

Two special Thursdays in October
- Thursday, Oct. 22: the market is part of Stars, Flannel & Vintage Weekend. The City lists it from 1 to 7 PM with more than 50 vendors, and there is a petting zoo at City Hall, 5410 Pine Street.
- Thursday, Oct. 29: the last summer market of 2026, on the same afternoon as the City’s Trunk or Treat, 3:30 to 7 PM, with trunks along Main Street and Railroad Avenue.
Both are on our events calendar with their sources.
Winter market: what we know and what we do not
The City states the winter pattern, the 2nd and 4th Thursdays from November to April, but the 2026 to 2027 dates are not on its calendar yet. Last winter the market skipped some dates, including Dec. 11, 2025, the day of the Christmas Market. Treat winter dates as likely, not certain. By the rule, the dates through December would be:
- Thursday, Nov. 12
- Thursday, Nov. 26: Thanksgiving Day. The City has not said whether the market meets.
- Thursday, Dec. 10: also the City’s Christmas Market, 3:30 to 7 PM. Check which market is on.
- Thursday, Dec. 24: Christmas Eve.
The Christmas Market itself, with Santa and free carriage rides, is covered on the holiday season page.
The pavilion
The market’s home came out of the City’s downtown project, which added a brick Market Alley, the open-air wood Market Pavilion, a pocket park on Pine Street and a park with an outdoor amphitheater. CPL, the design firm, lists the project as completed in 2022 at a cost of $4.25 million.
