The Power of Produce “POP” Club is a nutrition & agriculture program designed to inspire children ages 5-12 to eat healthier and connect them to their local food sources. The program, headed by Market Manager, Tricia Nitti, holds weekly events at the market and encourages active participation in cooking demonstrations and food samplings, arts & craft projects, gardening activities and agricultural education. Members of the POP Club receive a “passport” and collect stamps for their participation. As a reward, children completing a passport are eligible for a free meal at Roswell’s Table & Main.
Roswell Farmers and Artisans Market is located directly behind Roswell City Hall, 38 Hill Street, Roswell, Georgia 30075. The market is open 8 am to noon each Saturday, rain or shine, from April 18th through October 31st. For more information, contact Tricia Nitti at roswellfam@gmail.com or 404.492.9938.
