Produce Stand Opens in Midtown

Peachtree Street just got a little more peachy.

Two brothers, Jeff and Matt Bowman of Georgia Farm to Table, last week opened Dewberry Market in the former Jock and Jills Sports Grill space at the corner of Peachtree and 10th streets. 

The produce stand sells fresh fruits and vegetables six days a week. 

"The produce is very good," Midtown resident Marjorie Abbott said Wednesday morning as she shopped for corn. "I've been here every day."

The Bowman brothers, who grew up in Sandy Springs, currently offer produce from local farmers including okra, eggplant, tomatoes, peaches and peppers. They plan to sell pumpkins in the fall and Christmas trees in the winter, Jeff said Wednesday. 

"We focus on Georgia-grown and regionally grown produce in our desire to see Atlantans eat more local agriculture," Matt said in an email. "We are trying to open up several more stands in neighborhoods throughout Atlanta."

Dewberry Market is open Monday through Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. The brothers plan to offer free delivery to Midtown residents who spend at least $25.
