Look at the size of this vendor list for Friday! The Ghent Farmers Market family is back on Spotswood Avenue this Friday, July 17th, from 4 to 7 PM, and we are throwing a full-blown neighborhood block party. We have a serious dinner lineup ready for you, featuring everything from Riffle Farm's amazing bison dogs and Yolee's G-Dawgs to LUCITA'S. Whether you want to sit on the grass and listen to Ta Gatling play live music or stroll down the street with a cold drink, this is exactly where you want to kick off your weekend.

Small businesses are the absolute heartbeat of Norfolk, and that is exactly why the Ghent Farmers Market exists. When you shop at our market, you are bypassing the big corporate chains and putting your money directly into the pockets of local families, independent artisans, and regional farmers. You get the freshest, highest-quality goods possible, and they get to keep doing what they love. It is a win for everyone, and it is what makes our community so special. Tag your favorite market crew in the comments, tell them dinner is on the street this Friday, and come out to help us support local.

Ghent Farmers Market • 730 Spotswood Ave, Norfolk • 1st & 3rd Fridays April–September • 4–7pm • Live Music: Ta Gatling • Food Truck: LUCITA'S • GhentFarmersMarket.com

Old Beach Farmers Market isn’t a chain store. It isn’t a corporation. It’s farmers from Suffolk, seafood from the Shore, small batch food businesses, bakers, mushroom growers, coffee roasters, and people trying to make a living doing something they care about.

Every Saturday morning takes work most people never see — loading tents, coolers, products, signs, tables, and inventory before sunrise just to be ready by 9am.

If you’ve ever wondered if shopping local matters… it does. More than people realize.

Memorial Day Weekend is a BIG weekend for small businesses, so come spend part of your Saturday supporting the people behind the tables 💛
