Whistle Stop Farmers Market Starts Tuesday

The Whistle Stop Farmers Market returns for its fifth season in Historic Downtown Norcross this Tuesday, May 7.

Check out a mix of 45 vendors that are either Whistle Stop veterans or new to the market this year with fresh bread, jelly, salsa, pasta, granola, baked goods, fresh fruit and more.

“We have fresh gelato, the Red Queen of Tarts, and a Southern concoction called ‘cake jars’ that are new on the vendor list,” said vendor manager Jan McKinney, according to the city of Norcross.

Shoppers also can check out a local cheese artisan that's new this year, and a popular goat cheese vendor will be returning, too.

On the Tuesday opening, attendees can expect a solo performance by internationally acclaimed blues musician Little G, and several kids activities also will be available.

The market is open from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. every Tuesday through Sept. 24, 2013. Find out more at www.norcrossfarmersmarket.com.
