Mother's Day Market

Experience the vibrant community atmosphere at the Carrboro Farmers Market. Throughout the year, we host an array of engaging activities designed to educate and entertain families. Every Wednesday, our Market Bunch program provides free, hands-on learning experiences focused on sustainability, local agriculture, healthy eating, and creative arts and crafts. These recurring sessions offer a perfect midweek opportunity for children to connect with their local food system in an interactive way. Beyond our weekly offerings, the market celebrates the changing seasons with special events such as Kids Seedling Day, the Strawberry Jamboree, and our festive Vendor Halloween Costume Contest. Whether you are sampling fresh local tomatoes, exploring the beauty of spring flowers, or participating in seasonal cooking showcases, there is always something unique to discover. These gatherings highlight the incredible work of our local farmers and artisans who provide fresh, quality goods to our community. We invite you to bring your family to the Carrboro Town Commons to enjoy these educational festivities.
