Long Story Short
Whether you’re a Raleigh resident stocking up for the week or visitor with some time to kill, the State Farmers Market is a stop worth making. The market, which is open year-round, offers an insane selection of beautiful produce, meats, prepared foods, flowers, gifts and more. And depending on the time of year, you’ll find vendors selling everything from heirloom tomatoes and strawberries to locally grown pumpkins and Christmas trees. You can also find other local products like creamed honey (10/10: would recommend), jams, pickles, pastries, and even artisan cheeses. It’s an awesome place for anyone looking to buy fresh, high-quality produce while supporting Raleigh’s local farmers.
What’s to Love
- Considered one of the best farmers markets in the nation
- Tons of fresh produce, meats, cheeses, plants, and gifts from across the state
- Open 7 days a week
- Free admission
Things to Note
- While most stands accept credit card payments, some are cash only
- They only carry what’s in season, so don’t expect strawberries in December
- Pricier than the grocery store
