What CFM Staff Love About the Market

In the spirit of Valentine’s day, we wanted to share what our staff loves about Carrboro Farmers’ Market! While there’s so much to love, from the variety of locally-grown products, to our customers and vendors, CFM staff shared what means the most to them.

Chloé, Market Manager

“I love the community and being able to make connections with farmers, shoppers, market-supporters, and sponsors, the way so much comes together around the Market. It feels good to have a place that connects so many people.”

Sophie, Assistant Manager

“I love that the Market is a community gathering space. I come to the Market knowing that I’m going to run into so many people from different parts of my life and the Market is something we all share.”

Anna, Market Ambassador

“I love learning about what’s in season, especially since I’m not from this specific region. What drew me in as a customer was wondering ‘what am I going to get to cook this week and what am I going to learn about this week?"‘“

Lesley, Market Ambassador

“I love that CFM feels like an alternative to ‘big grocery.’ People are looking for ways to get their food that feels a little bit more ethical and locally beneficial.”
