The East Lake Farmers Market, established in 2005, makes fresh produce and other resources for healthy living available in South East Lake.

Local farmers offer fresh produce on Saturday mornings from May to October

• A bounty of fresh fruits and veggies from local farmers
• Health screenings and education
• Local musicians and artists
• Cooking demonstrations
• Fun activities for kids and families
• Tasty baked goods and frozen treats

The East Lake Farmers Market offers a CSA-type market basket subscription for those interested in a weekly supply of fresh produce throughout the market season.  Two size options are available.  Subscribers pick up their boxes at the market or at designated pick-up sites around town.  You can sign up for the whole season or purchase by the week.  More info about 2012 market baskets will be posted here by April.  Questions?  Email us at peerincbirmingham@gmail.com.

The Walgreens Wellness Van offered several health screenings in May 2011

We’re very excited to share that we’re getting a mobile market truck, courtesy of funding through the USDA Farmers Market Promotion Program.  Next season, look for us with fresh food in more places around South East Lake and surrounding neighborhoods.

The market is currently closed for the season.  We’ll open again on Saturday, May 5.  Please stay tuned for details about the 2012 season!

We still have Urban Food products, our line of jams and relishes, available for sale.  Please email us at peerincbirmingham@gmail.com for pricing and availability.  We do gift baskets, too!

The East Lake Farmers Market is handicap accessible.
