Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Launches New Campaign Connecting Consumers with Local Farmers Markets

Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler J Harper announced the launch of “Meet Me at the Market,” a new statewide campaign that spotlights the powerful impact of farmers markets on Georgia’s top industry—agriculture—and the communities they serve. The campaign aims to unify and elevate farmers markets across Georgia while amplifying their impact as essential community resources.

“We’re excited to launch our 2026 Georgia Grown Farmers Market campaign, ‘Meet Me at the Market,’ highlighting Georgia Grown certified farmers markets in every corner of our state,” said Commissioner Tyler J Harper. “With fresh produce like iconic Georgia peaches and world-famous Vidalia onions in season now, there’s no better time for Georgians to visit their local farmers market and support local agriculture.”
