Carrboro Farmers Market — Attraction in Carrboro

i absolutely love this farmers market, i come here every saturday morning!! great selection and friendly people, there's usually live music too :) gets very busy once it hits 10am though, and parking gets more difficult. as other reviewers have said, turnover is relatively quick for the lots right by the market but there are more municipal lots a few minutes walk away that are sometimes quicker to park in.

From honey & nuts to meats/seafood & cheeses. There is a bit of a parking lot, but many times we park down the street and walk to it. They have coffee/tea vendor which is great to get my 1st cup of the day. FYI no dogs allowed on...
