Grand Opening Celebration May 30!

Get ready for a big party this weekend at the Western Wake Farmers’ Market (WWFM)! We are celebrating our GRAND OPENING complete with special guests, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, entertainment and giveaways. All our amazing vendors will have their best products on hand for you to fill up your kitchen with fresh, healthy, local options starting at 8 AM.

Here’s a peak at what we’ve planned:

  • Ribbon-cutting Ceremony: 9:45 AM. You won't want to miss the opportunity to hear about how and why we got started.
  • Prizes from our vendors every half hour, starting at 8 AM.
  • Entertainment: bring a blanket and chair for the 10:15 AM performance of the Turkish Teen Dancers, who are sure to thrill all ages. At the other end of the market, enjoy the sounds RTOOT (The Really Terrible Orchestra of the Triangle), a unique 75-piece symphony orchestra, at 11:00 AM.
  • We have two special education features this week. Dr. Jiger Shah of Serene Smiles Dentistry, a sponsor of the WWFM located right in Carpenter Village Marketplace, will discuss nutrition and dentistry. Also visit with Ed Witkin of Solar Tech South who can answer all your questions about solar energy.
  • Local Tastes and Talk: Chef Scott Crawford of Herons in The Umstead Hotel and Spa, a sponsor of the WWFM, will serve a dish using market ingredients and share his "tricks of the trade" about cooking with local foods.

Be sure to visit several new vendors: Iron Gate Vineyards, Fickle Creek Farms, and Cary’s own La Farm Bakery. See you Saturday at the celebration!
