Prattville Farmers Market 

The Prattville Farmers Market growers and makers will have fresh products available out in the Grove on Doster Road on Saturday from 7 a.m. to noon. Summertime is great for grilling, and there’s nothing like fresh grilled corn with lime butter or grilled peaches with a drizzle of honey. Make campfire pockets with potatoes, onions, carrots and peppers wrapped in foil or wake up to a slice of homemade morning glory bread with fresh farm-raised eggs. Find all you need at the Prattville Farmers Market, but come early for the best selection. The city of Prattville and the Farmers Market want visitors and vendors to be as safe as possible, so they are practicing social distancing, wearing masks and providing hand-sanitizing stations to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
