Don't miss this week's demo with Craig Richards, chef de cuisine at Ford Fry’s latest hit restaurant, St. Cecilia.

His Atlanta journey has included La Tavola Trattoria and Ecco before heading down the road to Buckhead for St. Cecilia, where he delivers tasty coastal European fare. Stop by this Saturday to see chef Richards' summer tips and tricks!
Special Guest
Holy Comforter Middle School Arts Program
Also this Saturday, check out The Friendship Center Arts Program, who will have representatives on hand to share about this initiative at Holy Comforter Church. The arts program offers a supportive studio environment that fosters creativity, self-direction, and mutual encouragement. A part-time arts director and a corps of volunteers offer skilled one-on-one instruction in painting, ceramics, woodworking, fiber arts, photography, and stained glass. Instruction caters to all ability levels, and the artists may sell their work at church and community art festivals. This program, with its individualized instruction, its freedom to pursue creative projects, and the opportunity for the artists to show and sell their work, instills a sense of confidence and self-worth.

First things first...thanks to all of the chefs, breweries, ticket buyers, and auction bidders who made our 2nd Annual Sunday Supper a success! Funds were raised for PRFM's Wholesome Wave program (doubling the value of SNAP benefits spent at local farmers markets) and our city-of-Atlanta-required police officer (helping pay for this part of the market so that we don’t have to pass on the additional cost to our vendors).
This week at PRFM...
Chef Demo at 10:00 a.m. with Jenn Robbins of Avalon Catering (check here to read about how awesome she is and why you won't want to miss this demo). Also, physicians from Piedmont Healthcare will be at the market offering free skin cancer checks from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Early detection is key in treating skin cancer—take care of you!
