Talladega

The Talladega Farmers Market sets up on East Street South on Tuesday afternoons, 3 to 6 p.m., from early June through the end of August. There's no covered facility, so it's an open-air, weather-dependent market — worth a call ahead if rain is in the forecast.

Gadsden

The City of Gadsden's Parks and Recreation Department runs the operation.

Dogwood Farmers Market operates at 299 Robertson Avenue in Tallapoosa, a small Haralson County town near the Alabama line in Georgia's westernmost hill country. Beyond the address, most listings for it are generic marketplace directories rather than firsthand reporting, so specifics on hours and vendor lineup aren't confirmed here -- call ahead before making the drive.

Pell City
