The mission of the Atlantic Beach Farmers Market is to promote local food and local artists. To build a community where we work and live. We support our local economy, increase market opportunities for farmers and small businesses and provide access to an assortment of local and regional sourced products.
We want to create a destination, a place where the market serves as a setting for the community and visitors to the area to gather and learn something new from a farmer, grower, producer, or exhibitor.
