These berries are super sweet, juicy and very perishable. They're perfect to eat as it or for strawberry shortcake, jam or pie. Highly recommend!!

I found that an elderberry vendor was here (and said they were each week) along with a micro greens farmer made this very helpful and a realistic alternative to the raleigh farmers market for those of us on this side of the triangle. Honey farmer (harvester?) was also there and the honey was really good. Fruits and vegetables along with some craft people were also there. I really recommend this as an addition to the normal shopping as it seems to be a reliable place to get food for the house.

While checking out the plants, I enjoy watching and listening to their chickens. The tented area has gifts and gardening supplies and the shed has local goods. Just outside the tent from the check-out is the fresh produce area. Then as you keep walking you'll pass the rows of potted plants. I've been here several times, most recently for flowers and fresh bread. Prices vary but are about mid-range. It's a good place for local produce and gifts.

This could be because of the small size of The Depot, not allowing for many, or I may have been there on a slow day, so they didn't utilize all the space available. The goal is to have vendors within 150 miles of Apex. All the vendors were close together, so you don't need to walk far to see what is available. Benches were also available. They have activities for kids as well. If I am in Downtown Apex on another Saturday, I will return again.

This is a nice little find on a relatively sparse area along Salem Street. Expanding from their…read moreFarm Soap Company in Franklinton, Carden Farms has opened a farmer's market in Apex. Although it still seems to be getting itself organized, there's a lot of potential here for anyone wanting to shop local. I spoke to one of the owners (Carol) during my visit, who proudly explained their goal was to source as much from North Carolina as they could. And for those few things not from NC, nearby states were represented. It's late in the season for produce, but Carden still has some nice winter squash from the NC mountains and tomatoes available. And unshelled pecans -- a southern staple -- are sitting in a bin outside the door. NC honey, clover and wildflower, is available inside. What makes Carden unique is the non-food inventory: bird houses made with real tree bark and moss, local firewood, and the natural soaps from the "home farm" Carden Farms in Franklinton, and various made-in-NC (or USA) knicknacks. The natural sponges from Florida are larger than I'd expected; and the local (from Apex) hand-made crochet scrubs are cute and equally as colorful as their box-store counterparts, but sans synthetics. In the other half of the store is a freezer with local grass-fed meats and a cooler with eggs, all reasonably priced. Eventually, as Carden gets fully up and running in this location, they plan on adding breads, cheeses, and boiled peanuts. I'm not sure when this will all happen as they're still working hard to organize everything. And surprisingly, to complete the total farmers market concept, according to their website, Carden will also offer North Carolina seafood on Saturdays. I can't wait to watch this shop expand and hope it becomes a nice alternative to the trek to the Raleigh Farmers Market.
