You need collards for New Year’s Day, and the best place to find local collards is at the Wake Forest Farmers Market, which will be open from 10 a.m. to noon in the Renaissance Plaza on Brooks Street.
You will also find local sweet potatoes, the best, and seasonal or nonseasonal greens like spinach from the local farmers. Get some good deals on cabbage and kale.
There will be plenty of meats available Saturday – beef, chicken, pork, lamb, turkey, goat and rabbit – along with eggs and baked goods like empanadas, cinnamon rolls, granola, sweet breads and yeast breads. A vendor also offers a variety of gluten-free baked goods.
The market will be open every Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon through March.
