In this episode of Make Your Remarkable, we sit down with Brian Strickland, Director of the Athens Farmers Market, to explore his journey from managing live events to leading one of Athens' most vibrant community spaces. Since moving to Athens in 2022, Brian and his family have helped the market flourish, bringing people together while supporting local farmers, makers, and artisans. He shares what makes the market special, his vision for its future, and the challenges and opportunities in increasing access to fresh, locally grown food. We also discuss the market’s role in strengthening the local economy, fostering connections, and staying ahead in the evolving local food movement. Brian reflects on how his experiences as a father and community leader shape his approach, and he shares what Make Your Remarkable means to him and how he and his team create meaningful experiences for vendors and visitors alike.
