Despite the current hot weather, fall is upon us beginning with the weekend – crisp mornings, leaves turning crimson and yellow – and the folks at the Wake Forest Farmers Market Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon will have all you need for seasonal meals.
Several vendors offer a wide variety of meats—beef, chicken, pork, goat, rabbit, turkey, lamb – in different cuts, frozen or fresh. Eggs will be plentiful, including duck eggs, and there is one seafood vendor. Partner those with the vegetable vendors – think squash, pumpkins, black-eyes peas and collards along with eggplant, onions, potatoes – and the people who have breads, empanadas, pastries and granola and those offering fair-trade coffee, chocolate, fresh cut and dried flowers, perennial and annual plants and herbs, jewelry, baskets, wood products, soaps, lotions, and dog treats.
