Bill Pope was one of the original vendors of the Durham Farmers’ Market in 1999. Bill’s goal is to highlight the beauty of this area, especially Durham. The large, amber gnarled roots of the Red Dawnwood tree at Duke Gardens, the diverse store fronts on Main Street, the old Wrigley mural on Parrish Street, and the deep purple cut irises at the Durham Farmers’ Market have been some of his many subjects. 

Many customers frame Bill’s greeting cards. The cards are also sent around the world. He cherishes an e-mail from a female army officer in Iraq who praised a landscape of Duke Gardens for adding “color” to her surroundings and easing her homesickness.

Bill also sells postcards and matted 8″x10″ enlargements of landscapes, flowers, and downtown scenes.

Curate Cider Bottle Release!

Cúrate Cider is infused with crab and heirloom apples grown in the storied orchards of North Carolina and Virginia, then finished in Cognac & Chardonnay barrels before bottling. This small-batch of our signature cider undergoes its final natural fermentation in the bottle using a process similar to vinting champagne. The result is a dry, refreshing, and lightly effervescent Spanish-style cider with very little residual sugar, perfect for sipping while nibbling charcuterie on a lovely fall day.

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.

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.

We're springing back to Foster Street for the '25 main season! Stop by for our bouquets, vegetables, and huge selection of plants! Native perennials, herb starts, annual flowers, and house plants with more variety coming every week. See you Saturday!

HELP FOR COUGHS

It’s the season of sniffles and coughs. We’ve got the goods to keep you and your family healthy and banish the dreaded long-lingering cough. Here’s what a customer recently had to say about our Cough Elixir and Relaxing Cough Remedy:

“Grateful for Relief. My mother has had a cough for over a year. It has caused sleep deprivation and kept her from going out and doing things that she enjoys. While waiting for doctors to figure out the cause, we found Full Flower Herbs. Within 24 hours of using the herbal tinctures things got better. The Cough Elixir and Relaxing Cough Remedy provided amazing relief and reduced the amount of mucus production substantially. Though the tinctures are costly for our family, it is so priceless to see someone you love and care about finally get some relief. We are very grateful.” -Monica

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.

This Saturday, we’re at the Farmers’ Market with all your fresh, local mushroom faves and we are sharing samples at every market!

We also produce three flavors of mushroom jerky as well as frozen ready to heat and eat, Lions Mane “Crabcakes.” We ship our popular mushroom jerky nationally! We are always adding new products of dried mushrooms, tinctures and more.

At Homebucha, we’re crafting a new wave of ancient drinks. Kombucha is a fizzy fermented tea that has been consumed for thousands of years for its probiotic benefits. We believe kombucha can be as delicious as it is healthy.

You can find us at the Market every Saturday, offering multiple flavors on tap and in 12 oz cans. We even have a zero waste, glass bottle return + refill system. Stop by for a sample!

Cheers, Homebucha Kombucha

Since childhood, Tri Sa has been passionate about growing produce and flowers. After fleeing war-torn Burma, she relocated to Chapel Hill in 2007 to build a new life.

Two years later, her passion for farming was reignited when she joined Transplanting Traditions, a community farm that helps migrant refugees from the Thailand-Burma border adopt a pesticide-free farming approach.

Since 2009, the family-owned Mu Ta Ka Paw Garden has been serving the local community at the Chapel Hill Farmers’ Market and the Carrboro Farmers’ Market, offering a CSA pick-up at both locations.

Mu Ta Ka Paw Garden currently cultivates flowers and grows a variety of vegetables, including Asian greens such as fresh ginger, bitter melon, bok choy, yu choy, gai lan, and water spinach (morning glory), among others.

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.

Red Hawk Farm grows flavor driven, certified organic produce with intentionality. We got our start in 2014 growing for friends, community supported agriculture (CSA), farmers’ market, and chefs. These early supporters were champions of better tasting food, produced with strong convictions about our role in protecting the environment, our collective health, and the well being of those who work to make this all happen. We have kept this spirit at our core as we have expanded the business to have a greater impact on our community.

The foundation of our farm is our two acres of greenhouses that allow us to provide outstanding quality and consistency for long, extended seasons. Because we grow in rich soil within our greenhouses rather than hydroponically, all of our crops are certified organic and have what we believe to be superior culinary characteristics. We go further towards this goal by prioritizing research and development of varieties and production practices that result in some of the sweetest tomatoes and most unique lettuce mix on the market, just to highlight two categories. We are proud to routinely hear from buyers, chefs, and home cooks commenting on the noticeable difference in our product.

We are located in Hurdle Mills, North Carolina — 30 minutes from Durham

We are a chemical-free farm in Orange County, growing specialty grains and legumes. We have an on-farm Stone Grist Mill that we use to make freshly ground flours, cornmeal, grits, polenta, pancake mix, and more. We also have a small bakery that exclusively uses our own flours.

Our mission is to make wheat and other grains digestible for people, which we accomplish by being able to control all aspects of the process. Come by the stand to get our fresh baked goods made from our own nutritious and delicious flours! Leave with baked goods, recipes for how to make them, and the flours needed for the project.

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.

Thanksgiving’s coming up! For the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing a Thanksgiving recipe using kimchi. This week’s recipe is kimchi stuffing and it sounds delicious! Here’s one version with celery and walnuts (https://bit.ly/47UajyH) and another with bacon and wild mushrooms (https://bit.ly/49E7PWq). 

This week we’ll bring these kimchi varieties:

GREENS- Napa, green cabbage, collard greens, bok choy, mustard greens, radish greens (new!)

ROOTS- radish, turnip, kohlrabi carrot, green garlic, beet, sweet onion

SEASONAL- winter squash, persimmon (new!)

What do you do when you have worked hard to remove harmful chemicals in the form of synthetic fragrances from your home, but you also like a lovely fragrance on your laundry? 

You use our specially distilled pure essential oils! These oils are hand poured in our wool house, which we love, because the whole building smells amazing on restock days.

Stop by and let us tell you more ways you can use them in your home, in addition to on your dryer balls. 

We will also have beautiful cuts of mutton and lamb: sausages, shanks, leg roasts, ribs, sausages, stew meat and bones 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!

Follow us on Instagram or facebook to stay up to date on our upcoming events.

See you Saturday!

Creating hand-dyed clothing has been our bread and butter at Terra Clotha, but we also offer the kinds of things you might use along with your literal bread and butter. Such as napkins, that you can put in your lap at mealtime and prevent ugly stains to your seersucker slacks when the bread and butter moves of its own accord from your plate to your lap, where it invariably tends to land buttered side down (thanks, Edna Ferber!).

Besides hand-dyed napkins, we also have dish towels and we have aprons, in sizes for children, youth, and adults. We can do special orders if you would like to give napkins, aprons or dish towels in a special color as gifts.

Clothing from Terra Clotha. Colorful and bright ways to protect you from your food.
