Change is in the air, and it’s not just the breezy, spring weather. The Alexander City Farmer’s Market is sprouting new growth with a new location and a new manager. Main Street Alexander City sponsors this yearly summer event, which runs from the first Saturday in June until the last Saturday in September, but this summer it will move to the old city hall parking lot. In addition to an exciting new location, Kelsie Miller will be taking over at the helm, offering her own spin to Saturdays downtown. As owners of Coosa Fancy, a 25-acre farm in Rockford, Miller and her husband have farming experience, as well as great joy in watching things grow – a perfect combination to guide the city’s farmer’s market into its new beginning.  

“Main Street is very excited to have Kelsie as our new farmer’s market manager. Kelsie and her husband live, eat and breathe the farm life, and she is a breath of fresh air for the market. We are very excited about our new location this year, which will allow for better flow and hopefully increase sales for our farmers and other vendors,” said Stacey Jeffcoat, executive director of Main Street Alexander City.
