A few featured vendors:
Moondance Soaps has handcrafted goat milk soaps at the Durham Farmer's Market.
Having tried these in sample sizes - one with a cherry cream fragrance, the other with ginger citrus - it was lovely to see that they don't have 'disappearing soap' syndrome.
Some natural soaps wash away so easily you barely have time to use them. Not so here!
Also they are now restocking a Patchouli blend as well as the Oatmeal Milk and Honey Soaps. They still have some of the Gingersnap Cookie bar soap as well!
One vendor product that has caught the eye on several past occasions is Meadowlane Farms Angus Beef.
They offer commendably pasture-based and nationally certified Animal Welfare Approved beef products.
They will be selling steaks, roasts, brisket, meaty soup bones, and beef sausages.
Soup sounds warm and cozy in this chilly weather!
Head on down to the Durham Farmers Market and see what's in store!
Happy Local Shopping!
