    Very nice location I was there doing the Seafood festival I highly recommend. The variety of food trucks was in no shortage. It was wonderful!
  • By Laura Miller
    I love the cool vibe of the farmer's market in Durham, the vendors, food trucks & live music all lend themselves to a 60s feel which is when I grew up. Bell bottoms and crop tops, fringe and tie dye are all back in style. I love being able to buy fresh food grown locally.
