Durham Farmer’s Market Grand Opening

The Durham Farmer’s Market is in a new location on Foster Street. Saturday was icy cold, but lots of folks came out for opening day anyway. The crowd enjoyed live music, live cooking from a local catering company, fresh hot chai, a jeopardy-style game from SEEDS, fuzzy dogs, and of course early spring foods and young plants. The kiddos picked out lavender and spearmint plants for our garden area. I either missed the empanadas, or they weren’t there today.

  1. I just want to thank you for your blog. We live in Durham and we love it and this year for our anniversary we decided to “vacation” in Durham. We planned on doing all the little things we were too busy to do normally. While we were looking for reminders I saw your website and we made a list.

    This weekend we have:
    Been to the Durham food co-op
    eaten doughnuts at La Flavorita
    had locopops
    ridden our bikes to the Farmers Market Opening (Yeah! Scence of the Crime Rovers!)
    and a dozen or so other litte fun things that make Durham Special.

    If you haven’t been to taqueria La Superior of Roxboro you should put that on your list. Get the tacos! Yum! Or if you are VERY hungry get the Pollo Millanesa Torta.

    Thanks for writing!
