Summer Fest is NCDA&CS’ take on celebrating all things local. The variety of N.C. produce is as bright as confetti… and that’s worth celebrating. Corn, watermelon, tomatoes, peaches, you name it!
There will be free watermelon slices, provided by the N.C. Watermelon Association, free peach samples provided by the N.C. Peach Association, free tomato sandwiches and free corn recipe cards. The variety of summer produce harvested in North Carolina is abundant.
The Summer Fest has something for the whole family! There will be blueberry coloring pages and potato stamps for the kids. Remember this amazing event and time spent with family and friends by taking a selfie at our selfie booth.
We are also turning up the heat during the Summer Fest with NCDA&CS and Master Blend Family Farms’ Ron Simmons. Simmons will be doing cooking demos using local meat and produce. Learn how to grill wagyu burgers, beef tips and barbecue sliders with this experienced pitmaster.
N.C. Wine, beer, spirits, agritourism, and our amazing commodities will all be represented during the Summer Fest. Come out to learn more about what our awesome and abundant state produces, sample the flavors of summer and learn how to grill like a boss.
While at the market, visit the local vendors to purchase products to test your new skills on the grill. The State Farmers Market vendors are on the grounds 7 days a week, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Remember to keep local products on your grill this summer!
