Chattanooga Market - Latin Fair La Feria

The Chattanooga Market is a special treat for all. Every Sunday through December 7. Each Sunday afternoon has a special theme. Today was Latin Fair. Local produce, art, handy crafts, music - all local.

La Paz de Dios was the focus charity for today's event. La Paz supports the Hispanic community by supplying humanitarian needs and connecting families with local resources. It also works to educate the larger community about life as an immigrant.

The Chattanooga Market is region's largest producer-only market. Their message is local is better. Pointing our attention to the 3/50 project, the Market reminds us of the significance of the impact if just half of the employed population in Chattanooga spends $50 in locally owned business. The strategy - pick 3 local vendors, spend $50 each month.

Cooking classes every third Sunday, using recipes with Armanda Varnell using fresh food from vendors at the Market. Visit http://www.cookinglive.net/ .

It is a fun event, every Sunday.
