Craft Fairs & Farmers Markets in Savannah, Georgia

Held at Rousakis Riverfront Plaza in downtown Savannah, Crafts on the River runs six times yearly — spring, late April, late October, and November events, plus two in 2027. Each market draws up to 70 artists and crafters selling coastal art, decor, jewelry, pottery, furniture, photography, specialty food, skincare, candles, glass art, and more. Free admission pulls a steady crowd of local shoppers looking for handmade goods.

Forsyth Farmers' Market in Savannah is a producer-only market — all vendors must grow or produce what they sell. The market maintains a 60/40 split favoring farm product vendors (produce, plants, eggs, honey, meat, seafood) over prepared food vendors (baked goods, cheese, preserved goods, cooked items). Farm product vendors must grow or harvest 75% of their offerings; prepared food vendors must produce 100%. All vendors must comply with Georgia food safety rules, licensing, and sales tax requirements. The Vendor Committee reviews applications carefully — limited booth space means not every applicant is accommodated.
