Chattanooga Market, recently voted as one of the Top 10 best local farmers markets by livability.com, is hosting School Days from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.
“It’s a huge honor, and we’re in good company with cities like Portland, Ore., who have been running successful public markets for decades,” said Market director Chris Thomas. “It’s another pat on the back for our community who ultimately keeps our local market growing.”
