Stocked with spring season crops like leafy greens, strawberries, and broccoli, Raleigh’s State Farmers Market is open from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. The market provides 75 acres worth of fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables.

Other farmers markets to check out in the area are the newly relocated Downtown Farmers Market in City Plaza, the Farmers Market at North Hills, the Wake Forest Farmers’ Market, and the Apex Farmers Market. No matter which destination you choose, you are always guaranteed wholesale prices, friendly farmers, and of course the freshest of the fresh.
