    a package of meat and eggs
    Jillian S.

    Good, affordable, local proteins! I stopped by their booth at the Farmers Market on a Sunday afternoon. The Farmers Market was not overly crowded since it was later in the day. Mae Farm's booth is located inside the main building. I knew roughly where it was and then just followed the smell of sausage until I found it. The employee working the booth was cooking up sausage and handing out samples. I definitely wish I bought some since the sausage was packed with flavor. I did purchase a dozen eggs and two ribeye steaks. The eggs are good. One of the dozen was bad, which was not a big issue. The steaks were frozen. This worked out well since I could not cook them right away. We cooked them up today and they tasted okay, pretty average. I do want to return to purchase some of their sausage. They reuse egg cartons, so you can bring the carton back. The employee working the booth was friendly and provided information about the farm, the meat/eggs, and how the animals are raised. Overall, it was a good experience and I would return here.

    Great place to pick up your weekly meats, milk, cheese and other great treats. Kids love coming just to see what they have.

    I feel so lucky to live so close to this farmers' market. It's open 7 days a week, but the…read moreweekends are definitely more "open" than the rest of the week - with ALL the stalls open. There are lots of produce choices, several plant stalls, a couple of meat vendors, several florists, and then some truly great food vendors. There is also a whole indoor area with lots of great vendors, some food options, and coffee. It's absolutely ginormous! It's a must visit when in Raleigh!

    This was a MUST STOP on our trip to Raleigh. Easy to find and plenty of parking…read more We went on a Tuesday afternoon so there were a good deal of booths not open. However, there was a ton of live plants and truckloads of fresh vegetables for sale. Couple that with gourmet cheeses and baked and canned goods and you have a situation you could spend a lot of money on. As a snack, we bought a jalapeño cheese roll which was very good. You could definitely do some wallet damage here. I'd like to see this place on a weekend. My one criticism are the produce prices. $3.99/lb for slicing tomatoes and $12 for a watermelon. Other produce is equally expensive. This is rather boujee pricing and it's obvious they aren't targeting the average consumer. I love supporting local farmers but prices like this make it difficult. Come and check it out for yourself. It really is a sight to see and you could spend a whole morning or afternoon here. But guard your wallet. It would be easy to get carried away here.

I've lived in Raleigh for 14 years, and while I've enjoyed a few things from The Fresh Market before, I had never tried their bakery items. When I saw them on the Too Good To Go app, I decided it was the perfect excuse to run out and try it. My first two interactions were fantastic--the lovely elderly woman in the bakery and the sweet cashier checking me out were absolutely amazing and treated me with genuine kindness. However, the front-end manager (I believe her name was Tip or Tiff) completely ruined the experience. Her demeanor was an absolute deterrent. In an interaction that lasted less than three minutes, she hounded the cashier, repeating four or five times: *"Make sure you watch her scan it on the app."* The first time she said it, I thought nothing of it--just standard store process. But repeating it aggressively that many times while I, a Black customer, am just standing there rubbed me entirely the wrong way. To make matters worse, I had also picked up a granola bar to purchase. The manager came over *again*, hounding the girl: *"What are you doing? I have to make sure. Did you actually see her scan it?"* I felt incredibly sorry for the poor cashier, and frankly, I felt targeted. It is deeply frustrating to still deal with people acting like I don't belong in spaces where I absolutely do--and it's even more disheartening when that energy comes from another minority. If I had known I'd be treated with that level of baseline suspicion, I wouldn't have even spent money on the granola bar. That manager's behavior completely turned me away from ever spending my money at this store again. I truly hope this is a lesson for her in how she treats people. To the sweet cashier and the wonderful woman in the bakery, thank you for being decent human beings--I hope you both have an amazing day.
