Spring is definitely a great time at the Wake Forest Farmers Market with fresh greens and other early vegetables – there were two varieties of cherry tomatoes available last Saturday – but is it the best time? How about mid-summer with corn and more tomatoes than you can eat, or fall with mums and squash?
Whatever, you will want to be at the farmers market this Saturday, May 7, from 8 a.m. to noon to see what is new this week. Local farmers and bakers will be ready to sell those early spring strawberries, lots of early greens, potatoes, bedding plants, fresh-cut flowers, local honey, coffee roasted just up the street, baked goods of all kinds, jams, meats, and chocolate.
The list of vendors includes the following though not all vendors are at the market each week because of the seasonal nature of their wares or for other reasons: A Stitch Niche, Back Alley Roasters, Blueberry Hill, Brachi-Le Petit Roll, Brogden’s Produce, Bullocks Nursery, Edna Lee’s Farm, The Flour Garden, Gabie’s Garden Vegetables, Good Grace’s Dog Treats, Green Knight Farm, Heaven Scent Honey, Heritage Farm Eggs, Heritage Seafood, Homestead Flower Farm, Jay Woodcraft, Kalawi Farms, New Light Baskets, Poppy and Purl, Redman Pottery, Rolling Fog Farm, Serenity Meadows Farm, Strong Arm Baking Company, That’s Good Chocolate, Triple B Farms, Turtle Mist Farm, Walk Ahead Farms, WF Veterans Organizations, Wood Leaf Honey, Wrenns Farm and Yummies.
