Halloween is on Saturday this year, and it will be celebrated at the Wake Forest Farmers Market from 8 a.m. to noon. Children who go to the market dressed in their costumes will get treats and can participate in fun crafts in the Kids Art Tent where people from Wake Forest ARTS will provide the materials and instruction.
Saturday will also mark the end of the market’s summer hours; on Nov. 7 and through March of 2016 the market vendors will only be selling their wares from 10 a.m. to noon. The market is located in Renaissance Plaza on Brooks Street in front of the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre.
This week the music will be by The Lang Sisters. Remember the market does not pay the musicians so stick a few dollars in the tip jar.
As always, you will find seasonal vegetables in three or four vendor booths, dried wreaths and bouquets, honey and bee products, locally roasted coffee, artisan breads and baked goods, seafood fresh from the coast, pasture-raised meats, chocolate candy, handmade soaps and lotions, pottery, yard art, perennial plants and eggs.
There may be more. Go to www.wakeforestfarmersmarket.org and sign up for the newsletter to learn about all the vendors and get updates about who/what will be at the market each week.
