This Week at the Davidson Farmer's Market!

Winter has officially ended and spring is here! At Market tomorrow, we will say good-bye to winter and hello to spring; perhaps with confetti rain drops to celebrate.

Don't let rain prohibit your from getting the local goods you deserve - asparagus, lettuce, collards, kale, Swiss Chard, spinach, turnips, carrots, honey, mushrooms, pasta, meat, pork, chicken, salsa, cheese, bread, cinnamon rolls, cookies, doughnuts, flowers, soaps and scrubs, tilefish, flounder, prepared foods, doggie treats and more!

Herb and vegetable plants will be at Market too. Buy your home garden plants from your local farmers. They are the best in quality...and you know where they came from!
 
And mark your calendar for the next Market, Sat., April 7, open 8 a.m. to noon.  This will be the first spring Market and the kick-off to the new season. The Market will be in full swing with more vendors, chef demos with Chef Vera (9 and 10 a.m. ), music by Barrie Howard, the first Kids Club and more!

To Market, to Market we go!

See you there,

Fairy Houses at the WOW Booth

Fairy houses are tiny structures children can build out of natural materials such as moss, sticks, bark and dried flowers, especially for fairies and gnomes. These houses incorporate the four elements that sustain wildlife in a Certified Backyard Habitat - food, water, shelter and places to raise young. Fairy houses are a fun way to connect children with nature.  

Come by the WOW booth tomorrow for natural fairy fun!
