About Us

The Wake Forest Farmers Market was founded over 20 years ago by a farmer and baker who wanted to bring quality, affordable food to an area that was considered a food desert.  They also wanted to be a true definition of local, so all vendors had to produce what they sold and operate within 75 miles of the market.

The Market was first located in a small parking lot on S. White Street.  After living in several locations in Downtown Wake Forest, the Market moved to its current location in 2019.

As they did then, the current vendors own, operate and fund the market. Some of the products offered by current vendors include vegetables, micro greens, various meats, mushrooms, honey, cut flowers, plants and more.
