We are in the peak of summer with temps roasting our vendor’s and field workers; grinding day to day to bring us the foods we have come to love at the DFM! We are all experiencing the heat, but our farmers are in the dry land with extreme humidity. Lets show them some extra love this Saturday!
Come out and support our farmers and vendors and fill your bags, buckets, wagons, coolers, and totes with farm fresh foods, humanely raised proteins, small batch goods, handcrafted foods, artisan baked goods, and so much more!
is back this Saturday!
The Seniors Farmers Market Nutrition Program is a statewide summer-only initiative led by the NC DHHS Division of Aging, which came to Mecklenburg County in 2023. SFMNP aims to enhance the nutrition of older adults and support local farmers. Eligible seniors receive $50 in vouchers to buy fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and honey at participating markets. This initiative helps seniors access healthy food while boosting sales for local farmers.
The 2026 season is July 1-September 30, 2026
We will have sign-ups at the DFM this Saturday, July 11!
