  • About the Market Bulletin

    For more than a century, the Farmers and Consumers Market Bulletin has served as a medium of exchange for Georgians engaged in agriculture. In addition to publishing thousands of monthly classified advertisements for livestock, farm supplies and equipment, handcrafted and homegrown items – many things you can’t find anywhere else – the Market Bulletin is also a reliable source for the latest agriculture and consumer news.

    Notices for auctions selling farm-related items other than livestock must be accompanied by the auction license number of the principal auctioneer or auction firm conducting the auction, per regulations from the Georgia Secretary of State. Auctions must have this information to be published.

    You can access the online version of the livestock sales calendar here.


    Bulletin Calendar
    We accept calendar submissions for food, craft and agriculture festivals and events. Submissions for festivals that do not specifically promote those industries will not be printed. Pesticide recertification training notices are available on the department website under the Plant Industry Division tab.
