Christmas decorations have been in stores since the summer and holiday music started playing on the radio in the fall. It’s hard to believe the big day is almost here! No matter how hard I try, it’s impossible to cross all the tasks off my to-do list in time for the festivities. But don’t worry – you can still pick up everything you need for the perfect meal or those last-minute gifts tomorrow. Shopping at the farmers’ market is the perfect opportunity to find truly beautiful, handmade, local gifts that will show your friends and family how much you love them! If you can’t decide, stop by the Information Table and pick up a gift certificate to add to a Christmas card made by a local crafter. And while you’re here, don’t forget to pick up fresh produce, cheese, baked goods, meat and much more for your special holiday feasts!

Do you have family visiting from out of town? Bring them to the market so they can experience our local Durham community. The kids can play on the playground at Durham Central Park while parents explore the delicious offerings from our vendors. We’ll have a full house of vendors tomorrow so be sure to add a trip to the farmers’ market into your schedule. We can’t wait to see you!

Finally, we’re excited to announce that we’re accepting new member applications for the 2019-20 season. The deadline for applications is January 4, 2019. For more information, please visit our website or send us an e-mail.
