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 NC variety shop sells it all: produce, cheese, candy, preserves, t-shirts, gifts, towels, flags, cards, peanuts, signs, keepsakes, baskets, banana chips, popcorn cobs, and a million other items. When you're at the Farmers Market this is a great local place to pick up items during these times of social isolation. You can send gifts or cards to spread cheer, flap a new flag outside your house so the parade of neighbors you never knew you had who are walking their dog for the fifth time can enjoy your flag too, and you can buy fresh produce to feed your body and take care of yourself so you can care for others.

Have known them for about 10 years and have done business with them on a weekly basis when I had a business. The freshest vegetables that you can find around and if for some reason you find some that is not they will exchange without questions, once in a blue moon because the name of the game is to move the produce quickly and they do, some days that I got there after 3pm the place was almost empty. Juan #1 is German but was raised in Mexico and speaks, German, Spanish and English fluently and works from about 4am until 3Pm Juan #2 and the other members of the team work very hard to have your order ready when you get there.

I bought pecans that had been cracked but not shelled, and was told that the bags were 5 pounds each, this year's crop. The gentleman waiting on my helped me gave me the alternatives of buying shelled, cracked, or in shell, and assured me I was getting the best deal at 5 lbs for $28, so I purchased. Since I bought more than one bag, I kept thinking that they should be heavier, so upon arriving home, I proceeded to weigh each bag. None were more than 2 lb. 10 oz each. They were also old, not this year's crop. I returned to the market today and in a very kind way inquired about the shortage. The same gentleman waited on me again and denied even waiting on me earlier in the week. No apology, no offer to make things right. I am sorry to see this kind of thing going on here at our farmers market. Most of the vendors I have dealt with over the years would have at least made an effort to make it right. This will be my last transaction with this farm.
