Wife, Daughter and I had a great morning of shopping for farm fresh items at the Market, just outside Greensboro, NC. Apples and farm items were there to be purchased. Peaches were on hand and we picked up a basket of fresh ones.Great place to stop for a couple hours and lots of things to look at around the Market area.
This is not a particularly large farmers market, but, there is a good variety of vendors to choose from. Definitely shop around and sample the product to get the best deal. There are several covered areas that are full of vendors during the spring, summer, & early fall months. The local farmers are friendly and have fabulous prices. There is a garden center that is pricey for what you find, so, I would recommend visiting the vendors under the covered areas and avoid the garden center. You will find great fruits, vegetables, & plants. You will also find a variety of bakers selling cupcakes & breads, fresh meat & eggs, & several goat dairies selling cheese. You will find some of the same vendors there each week and some of the vendors vary from week to week. There is a covered building that is open year round with multiple farmer vendors, a bakery, & other vendors. During the summer their are themed days like blueberry day or bbq day, but, unfortunately a lot of these special events are on Fridays instead of the weekend and it is hard to attend if you work. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the Piedmont area.
it’s a small farmers’ market.Nothing fancy.In the winter has about 10-15 “shops” w/ various fruits and vegetables and w/ canned goods, meat, cheese, dry food, etcIn the summer, it goes 5-6 times that, up to about 100 different farmers. They would have fresh vegies and flowers and plants and everything you would expect in a farmers’ market.The size of this market and the location is what sets this one apart from other.
This place has it all. Awesome selection of fresh LOCAL produce and a nice selection of plants, flowers and garden do-dads. You will not be disappointed as long as you know you will be buying in season fruits and veggies.There is a restaurant on site, but by all means skip it. Bring cash because most vendors only take case and the ATM machine is not always working.
This is the second weekend in a row we have driven the 90 miles to the Triad Farmers market. Its well designed, clean and organized. The products are fresh and home grown. Everything from fresh flowers to fresh fruit. A great way to spend a morning. Great convenient parking.
A wide variety of items at the farmers market, plants, trees, food, hot food, meats, bakery, cheeses, wine. Overall a huge market.
We went on a recent Saturday afternoon. There was so much to check out. The outdoor vendors are definitely the place to get your fresh fruits and veggies.
Cruise up & down before you buy because there are so many deals to be had. You can save all kinds of money by doing so! But befor you leave there are 2 booths that are a must to visit. Both belonging to the Goat Lady! I never knew how much i really enjoyed goat cheese until I tried a small sample & now I'm hooked. I very possiblly could be their best customer for sure!
This very extensive market had LOTS to see - plus a huge assortment of goods. The vegetables were definitely not all from local farms - some were being off-loaded from semi-trailers in boxes! The garden and landscaping store had a truly impressive array of beautiful garden decorating ideas, but it was all rather expensive. For us, this was a disappointing trip.
What a great day out, have breakfast at Moose Café, then head to buy fresh veggies and fruit, jams, jellies, fresh bread and baked goods! Then head to my favorite AB Seed, a garden center (but much much more), great unique gifts for the gardener or anyone! Even have lunch or dinner. Such fun!
