Fresh at Farmers Markets This Week – Hendersonville.com

Start the Mother’s Day Celebration with Fresh Finds

No matter who you’d like to honor this week, farmers markets give you plenty of options for gifts, flowers, and special treats. Start the celebration with a simple breakfast in bed (or on a sunny porch if that’s more her style).

Fill a tray with locally made pastries, fresh strawberries, and maybe some eggs. You can find croissants and other pastries, as well as several types of quiche, from French Broad Pantry at various markets across the city. Alternatively, pick up bagels from Honey Badger Bakes and pair them with local goat cheese.

Fresh Fruits and Sweets

Fresh strawberries are now widely available at markets from different local growers. Be sure to look for vendors like Headwaters Market Garden, Lee’s One Fortune Farm, Full Sun Farm, Flying Cloud Farm, and Ivy Creek Family Farm for your fruit fix.

If you’d prefer to gift a box of sweet treats, consider chocolates or macarons from local vendors like Silvermoon Chocolate, Conjure Craft, and Beeswax and Butter.

Colorful Blooms for Mother’s Day

Flower growers are bringing a spectrum of blooms to markets, including anemones, tulips, ranunculus, dahlias, snapdragons, and more. Carolina Flowers, Blazing Star Flowers, Full Sun Farm, and Flying Cloud Farm are some vendors offering one-of-a-kind Mother’s Day arrangements or single bloom bouquets.

For the mother figure with a green thumb, consider purchasing flower, herb, and vegetable plant starts from Finally Farm at the local markets.

Fresh Produce Galore

In addition to flowers, markets are stocked with spring alliums, broccoli, beets, radishes, turnips, spinach, bok choy, salad greens, mushrooms, and more. You can also find a variety of meats, cheese, rice, pasta, pastries, drinks, and prepared foods.
