Abanitu Organics is owned and operated by Bernard Obie. The farm, located in Roxboro, is 32 acres of mostly woodlands, pasture and meadows, with about 5 acres under cultivation. Obie, a fifth generation farmer, is committed to building a healthy farm eco-system using a no-till approach on re-mineralized, naturally enriched soil. Abanitu Farms is a certified organic farm. Their mission is to cultivate food that achieves its genetic potential for nutrition, healing and flavor.

Bklyn Vegan Bakery (formerly Crumbs) produces handcrafted vegan pastries and desserts. All baked goods are made with organic, local, and seasonal ingredients.

Stuart and Alice White love the environment and choose to farm sustainably, with as minimal an impact on the environment as possible. They do not use synthetic fertilizers or chemicals. Instead, they use lots of compost (worm castings are considered ‘black gold’ among farming enthusiasts), leaf mulch, and cover crops to keep their soil healthy and their biodiversity up. They also hope to incorporate aspects of permaculture on their farm, creating a healthy, closed system with as little outsourcing for material and soil amendments as possible.

We take inspiration from small Italian farmstead creameries. Our local milk is sourced from a few small family-owned dairies who raise their cows with the greatest of care and highest standards. Milk from our own loved herd of mixed-breed dairy goats is also part of the mix! In addition to supporting these small dairy businesses, we employ a handful of locals, teach through internships, and employ youth through Orange County Second Family Foundation.

We distribute our artisan cheeses nationally, while also selling locally to restaurants, shops, and directly to shoppers at the Durham Farmers Market.

Our dedication to family, hard work, and great food are the soul of Boxcarr Farms and Boxcarr Handmade Cheese. We hope you’ll taste that in every bite.

By The Brook Ferments, based in Saxapahaw, handcrafts seasonal fermented foods including sauerkrauts, hot sauces, condiments, and soy-free tempeh, which is a highly digestible plant protein made from beans. Our goal is to funk up your table with flavor: specifically, the unique flavors that result from the magic of fermentation.

Our offerings include marinated tempeh burgers, seasonal sauerkrauts like beetroot peppercorn and turnip chive, and our famous chili crisp. Each offering is uniquely its own, and we hope that each nuance opens you up to the possibilities of what fermented foods can do for you, gut and taste buds alike. We are always building relationships and exploring new flavor combinations. There are endless possibilities and we take pride in sharing these gifts with anyone willing to try.

Following time-honored French farmstead techniques, Celebrity Dairy transforms goat’s milk into fresh goat cheese, or chèvre. Simply put, Celebrity Dairy’s chèvre is an honest expression of owners Brit and Flemming, of their farm, and of their place in time.

Like many specialty farm products, their cheese is fragile, and suffers from the abuses of shipping. They honor their cheese’s distinctive qualities by selling locally, thereby allowing them to hand deliver directly to their customers at local farmers’ markets, area restaurants that proudly feature it on their menus, and select local grocery stores.

None of this occurs in a vacuum: Celebrity Dairy is an integral part of Chatham County’s vigorous and growing low impact, sustainable agriculture community that produces high quality seasonal farm products in and for the Piedmont region. Brit and Flemming encourage and advise other cheesemakers in North Carolina, and work with the NC Ag Extension Service on conserving small family farms. On a broader scale, they support the American Cheese Society and the Slow Foods movement.

Celebrity Dairy practices low impact, sustainable farming.

Flo and Kate will see you Saturday with Carolina Moon, New Moons, well-aged Calvander, , savory Hickory Grove, unaged Dairyland Farmers cheese, Hot and Dill Farmers, and Pimento Cheese. We will probably have some of our cows' milk feta also. Make Pesto with Calvander, tabouli with Farmers' cheese, or serve Carolina Moon with your favorite local bread. We've had six calves born and hope we get some more cool temperatures soon for the next births.

Our ground beef is delicious because of the breed of cow we chose for our cheese. Jersey cows give rich milk and their beef is known for its flavor and texture. We think it is the best!

Cilantro was inspired by friendship and love for Mexican food. Long time friends Maria Pacheco and Martha Arango met in Durham, NC and started a journey through food flavors imported from Mexico and Colombia with a background of Rancheras and good tequila.

After constantly feeling homesick, Maria, a Guanajuato – Mexico transplant, created Cilantro’s unique menu by bringing her childhood flavors to North Carolina. Martha has always had a passion for Mexican food and culture and her graphic design background made her the perfect partner to join Maria in creating Cilantro Artisan Foods.

Spotlight Product of the Week: Herbal Acetum — Vinegar Hair Rinse

Long before shelves were filled with specialized beauty products, infused vinegars had a place in everyday personal care. Old apothecary, perfumery, and household books included aromatic vinegars—often made by steeping fragrant herbs and flowers in vinegar and using the finished preparations in skin, hair, and bathing routines.

Herbal Acetum takes inspiration from that wonderfully simple tradition. This modern interpretation of a traditional preparation begins with a vinegar infusion that is slowly steeped for 6–8 weeks with rosemary, thyme, nettle, comfrey, calendula, burdock root, juniper berries, and lemon rinds. It’s then blended with raw apple cider vinegar, distilled water, and a complementary mix of essential oils to create a simple finishing step that helps refresh the scalp and hair while leaving hair feeling clean, soft, and naturally shiny.

How to use: Herbal Acetum can be used after shampooing or between wash days when your scalp and hair need a refresh. Apply to wet hair, working the rinse directly into the scalp. Gently massage, then distribute through the length of the hair to the ends. Allow it to sit briefly before rinsing with cool water.

Stop by the market this week to explore Herbal Acetum and see how an old-fashioned approach to hair care found its way into a modern dweller Essentials bottle.

The Alston-Degraffenried House, a national historic site, is on the farm and was built in 1810. Because of this long history, Harland’s Creek Farm focuses on native and heirloom varieties of plants. Many of the flower bouquets they make could have been in someone’s parlor in the 1800s.

When Judy Lessler first moved there in the 1970’s, kudzu covered the yard and fields and was growing onto the porch of the house. After clearing, she discovered an old fruit and flower garden to the east of the house. In the fall of 2001, she built a parterre on the site of this old garden, using a plan that was inspired by drawings of 18th century gardens. Flowers and decorative shrubs are grown in the parterre. 

Today, Judy, Erasmo and Rene have 5 acres under production and are divided into three plots that have been opened successively over time since 2001. They grow our own transplants. Soil amendments include compost, feather meal, rock phosphate, sulfate of potash, bone meal, lime, or manure. Mulching and cover crops are used to build the soil. Pest management includes 6-8 foot fences to keep deer out, row-covers and flash tape to deter birds and rabbits, and occasionally we use OMRI approved substances for control of pests. Post-harvest handling consists of cold storage in an on farm walk in cooler. Flowers are conditioned using either Vita Products, Inc. or their own on farm mixture using substances that are compliant with the National Organic Program Standards.

As well as selling at the Saturday and Wednesday markets, Harland’s Creek Farm offers a CSA pick-up at each of these locations. These CSAs are operated with other farmers who sell at the Durham Farmers’ Market. Harland’s Creek Farm is certified organic.

The farm is now offering the ability to pre-order farm products. Please email the farm at hcffamers@gmail.com to find out availability and pricing for CSA boxes and options for delivery and pick-up.

Honeygirl Meadery is Durham’s first meadery, and they make meads to celebrate nature and the work of honeybees. Mead is an ancient alcoholic beverage, made by fermenting honey, water and yeast, often with added fruits, herbs and spices. Their meads are made with a modern cook’s perspective, with fresh local seasonal fruits, flowers, herbs and honey. Fermented for at least 90 days, and sometimes aged for almost a year, their menu of meads changes seasonally. Check our website for the latest releases.

Made in downtown Durham NC, Honeygirl meads are hand-crafted in small batches, using all natural ingredients. They use honey from reputable sources both near and far, including NC honey whenever supplies are abundant. They emphasize local whenever possible, including sourcing fruit from NC farms and corks from Zebulon, NC.

They offer a variety of meads, from dry to slightly sweet. They like to explore all the nuances of flavor that happen when honey is fermented into mead. By using wildflower honey in most of the meads, we get to experience all the places that the bees visited. Each mead is truly unique and reflects the terroir of the areas the bees foraged.

Huanong Ecorganic Farm is a family-owned research farm located in Hurdle Mills, NC, operated by Drs. Changhe Zhou and Tian Zhou. We grow and sell over 50 varieties of Asian vegetables and cucurbits throughout the year. Safe, nutritious, fresh, and delicious!

Produce: fall squash, potatoes, tomatoes, okra, eggplant (classic, mini, and long), peppers (spicy, lunchbox, and bell), onions (red and yellow), and garlic
Flowers: fresh picked bunches from what is blooming in the flower patch
Jams: A variety of fruit and savory  jams

We will continue to accept your glass jam jars and rings, but we now have an ample supply of paper egg cartons. Many thanks!

They’re here! We love the season but wish the mosquitoes would leave us to our peaceful outdoor moments.

All natural, harnessing power of geraniol, try our Bugs at Bay to keep those mosquitoes away. Do you stay outside a lot or go camping?  Regular use of our outdoor herbal soap can be a helpful additional step.

We love our bug spray because it smells like geraniums and it’s safe enough to use around our neck and face. 

Mu Ta K Paw Garden has been a family-run farm in Chapel Hill since 2009, providing fresh, high-quality produce. We grow a wide variety of greens, herbs, and flowers, and specialize in growing Asian vegetables suited to the local climate.

Now in its 15th year of offering a CSA program, Mu Ta K Paw Garden is proud to operate independently after many years of support from Transplanting Traditions Community Farm, a nonprofit organization that empowers refugee farmers from Burma. The farm currently operates on approximately two acres, growing both flowers and vegetables.

Determined to change the bread landscape, Ninth Street Bakery was founded by two brothers in 1981 fresh from a stint baking at the Tassajara Zen Center with monk Ed Espe Brown. They brought with them recipes for wholegrain goodness and a mind for doing good works in Durham. Known by many for its seeded sliced pan loaves, NSB now has crusty artisan bread products that burst with the flavors of natural levain, and flaky pastries that slow rise to perfection. Helmed by baker Ari Berenbaum 

Since 2013, NSB sits at Five Points in Durham, an anchor business in an ever-changing city. We have a full service café, as well as a robust wholesale program that covers the Triad from Greensboro to Raleigh, Durham to Chapel Hill and Carrboro. We give back to the community via our Bakery- and donor-supported Durham Neighbors program, an in-house experiment in Universal Basic Income whereby we Cashapp 100+ low-income local families every month $50 which goes to much-needed groceries, utility bills, or diapers. We are psyched to be now an official member of the Durham Farmer’s Market, joining an illustrious crew of artisans and purveyors who are dedicated to local, independent, small business, and Southern gastronomical culture.

You can follow us at Instagram.com/ninthstreetbakery or read Ari’s musings on bread and Durham at blog.ninthstbakery.com.

Piedmont Microgreens is an indoor farm located just four miles from the farmer's market! We specialize in microgreens, which are the youngest stage of vegetable crops. Microgreens are great because they're beautiful, tasty, and packed with nutrients. We will be bringing the following microgreens to the market: sunflower shoots, pea shoots, nutrition mix, salad mix, a farmer's choice, and a few specialty varieties, like cilantro, dill, and onion! The nutrition mix is a blend of broccoli, cabbage, and kohlrabi microgreens, while the salad mix is a blend of sunflower shoots, buckwheat, and kale microgreens. The farmer's choice will be a revolving blend of what inspires us each week.

Come see us this week for inspired vegetarian soups using NC-grown produce.  It's our first week of the year with Thai roasted squash. This well-loved soup relies on roasted kabocha squash, plus aromatics like ginger, garlic, makrut lime and lemongrass for its signature flavor. Silky smooth, and fabulous with anything coconut. Despite the red chili in the ingredient list, this soup is not at all spicy. Preorder anything from our menu until 2pm Friday via this link.

FROZEN SOUPS
peanut quinoa
golden tomato
Thai roasted squash
pumpkin apple
pinto bean & tortilla
mushroom broth

EXTRAS
onion jam
coriander dukkah
classic & gluten free croutons

Many thanks for a great summer of soups and your year round support!

They specialize in seasonal vegetables, fruits, rice and dry beans. All of their products are grown with an emphasis on the health of our community and the land.

The Spicy Hermit makes delicious varieties of gluten-free, vegan, and preservative-free kimchi, using local produce from neighboring farms (some of them at the market!).  Kimchi is a traditional Korean fermented dish, usually made with cabbages, though we like to experiment and use other seasonal, local vegetables, such as collard greens or kohlrabi.

This might be last week for cucumber kimchi! To ensure you don't miss out, pre-order by noon Friday for Saturday pickup.

This week we’ll bring these kimchi varieties:

GREENS- Napa, green cabbage, collard greens, bok choy, mustard greens, radish greens

ROOTS- radish, turnip, beet, rutabaga carrot

SEASONAL- green garlic, rhubarb, sweet onion, cucumber, winter squash (NEW!!!)

Fire Up the Grill: We’re Back at the Market This Weekend!

​Farmer Olga is thrilled to be back at the market this weekend, just in time to help you plan your Labor Day feast.

​With cooler temperatures on the way, standing by the grill is about to become a pure pleasure again. If you’re looking to make this holiday weekend memorable, our pastured lamb is ready for the fire.

​The Star of the Weekend: Coffee-Marinated Leg of Lamb

Looking for the ultimate crowd-pleaser? Grab a leg of lamb from our booth and try our James Beard Award–winning chef’s coffee-marinated recipe. Rich, savory, and beautifully caramelized over open flames, this preparation has converted even the most skeptical eaters into lifelong lamb lovers. It never disappoints.

​At the Booth This Saturday:
Fresh cuts of pasture-raised lamb (legs, chops, and grilling cuts)
​The complete printed recipe for the coffee marinade
​Farm-crafted goods to take home
​Stop by early to pick up your cuts before they sell out, grab the recipe card, and let’s talk grilling. We can’t wait to see you at the market!

Roasted Coffee Marinated Leg of Lamb:

1. S&P entire leg
2. Mix marinade:
· Coffee beans, roasted under broiler unitl crisp…be careful they burn easily. Grind coarse,not fine, ¼ c
· Fresh Rosemary LOTS, chopped
· Coarse ground Mustard
· Very dark brewed coffee, espresso if possible
· Red wine
· Garlic, LOTS
· Olive Oil
Combine all in food processor to yield about 2C. Coat lamb w/ paste and pour liquids over. Marinade for at least 2 hours.
Grill. IMO, your looking for about 130°

We will also have beautiful lamb sausages, a few chops and ground (for the ultimate lamb burger) this week, in addition to our regular wool and Lanolin products. 

What you may not know about us....

With all livestock farmers the most preferred cuts sell first and we are left with what we generally have in abundance, i.e bones.

Our commitment to sell the highest quality lamb led us to a promise that we would never hold anything in our freezers over 3 months.

If we don't sell it, we donate it!

That's our commitment to you and to the integrity of our products!

See you Saturday!

Our Bull and Brick design is loosely based on the W.T. Blackwell Bull Durham Tobacco image, which in turn was based on the depiction of a “Durham Shorthorn” bull that was featured on packaging for a brand of British mustard. Overlaid on the Durham bull is a pattern based in the bricks of Richard Fitzgerald, a Durham-based African-American entrepreneur of the late 19th and early 20th centuries whose bricks still make up sidewalks near the center of the city.

Greetings from the Red Clay Executive Suite!

It’s me, Hemp Toad, Chief of Pesticide-Free Partnerships at Whippoorwill Herb Company.

I recently ventured out of my usual headquarters for a little photo shoot for y’all at the Durham Farmers Market, and I’m happy to report that the hemp is looking mighty fine from down here on the soil. Take a look at the amazing view I have from my abode!

At Whippoorwill, we believe the best hemp is grown in partnership with nature. No pesticides or synthetic chemicals are permitted on these grounds! Healthy Piedmont soil, sunshine, insects, fellow toads, spiders, and other wild little critters that make this organic farm the best place to live.

And yes, I eat lots of those insects myself. An executive has to eat, after all, and I’m fat and happy!

Our hemp is sungrown, hand-trimmed, and slow-cured, with lots of love and a deep reverence for the land we steward in Caswell County — just forty minutes or so from the market.

Come see Sativa Sarah this Saturday! It’s always nice meet the humans behind the farm, right? And check out our flower, prerolls, traditional tinctures, and lavender CBD balm.

And if you see my picture at the table, you’ll know I’m keeping a close eye on things.

Your friendly neighborhood Hemp Toad
