The Community Farmers Market
Back by popular demand, the Downtown Development Authority has brought the Community Farmer’s Market back to downtown Villa Rica. The weekly farmers market is held weekly on Mondays from 4-7pm at the MILL Amphitheater.
The Community Farmers Market includes a variety of vendors selling handmade and homegrown products. There is always something fun happening at the market! Visit the weekly food truck, play giant yard games with friends and family, participate in free yoga with Villa Rica Yoga (monthly), and sing along to music at the MILL.
Check the MILL Amphitheater Facebook page for a weekly preview of vendors, products being sold, and the food truck on-site!
