Union County Farmers Market
is the place to be Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings.
From June through October, the market bustles with local
farmers, artisans, beekeepers and bakers for a celebration
of everything homegrown and handmade. The Market is
also home to the Union County Cannery, plus monthly
classic car shows and regular special events — everything
from Tomato Sandwich Day to tractor parades.
Reece Farm, home of acclaimed poet and novelist
Byron Herbert Reece, wonderfully preserves rural life in Appalachia.
The restored barns, farm exhibits and artifacts capture life
in the mountains, and poetry and nature trails introduce you to
the acclaimed “Farmer Poet” of North Georgia. Enjoy the
creekside amphitheater, picnic tables and petting farm. There is
also a welcome center, museum and gift shop, as well as wedding
and event facilities. Come enjoy a wonderful day in the past.
