Visit the North Raleigh Farmers Market

Have u been to the Raleigh Farmers Market in North Raleigh? It’s the one at the Falls River Town Center on Wednesdays and Saturdays, thru October.

 There are a lot of food vendors. Ones you’d expect like vegetable growers. That’s where most the people were.

 There was an even an ice cream man.  And other ones like these honey growers.

And this woman I met named Audra who sells cupcakes. She wrote to me after coming across my blog. I tried two of her mini cupcake samples. They were delicious. The first one I sampled was tiramisu. It was very subtle in taste which I liked. The other was dulce de leche. It had a caramel flavor. They were both very good and memorable. She said she sold out of the red velvet cupcake earlier. Darn…that’s my fav’rite. I’m sure it would’ve been good though. But two cupcakes (although finger size) was all I could have before noon. Well…the only sweets I would have the rest of the day.

I also ran into a woman named Jan who sells farm raised meat like chicken and duck. She’s based out of Wake Forest.  It was a reminder me that we’re not far from the farms.
