Very good visual of the importance our local farmers markets. 🌱🎉 Opening Day – Conover Farmers Market! 🎉🌱

In the Venn diagram of life, farmers markets remain at the center 👨‍🌾⭕️

As the world becomes more and more reliant on AI, farmer’s markets continue to do something that technology cannot: act as an epicenter for the things that make us human. From nourishing food systems to preserving practices that long predate the invention of the computer, they connect communities to the people who keep us fed and the art that keeps us inspired. We will always advocate for their importance, not just for our neighborhoods, but for our global population. Because, without farmers markets, we risk losing not just what we love, but what we need to survive.

Not gonna lie, I barely know what day it is.. But, I'm at the shop, so it must be Thursday. It's been a crazy couple of weeks, but hopefully things will get back on track to a regular schedule soon. Although, this week is not going to be it. Not in the strictly "normal operating hours" sense. I dropped off Chicken Salad at Blue Bird Boutique this morning and they have cheese spreads as well. I plan on stocking up there more tomorrow for the weekend. So, if you want chicken salad or cheese spreads, head to Blue Bird Boutique and shop the whole store for many other great finds! I am going to be in and out today, so text or message before you stop in. Tomorrow will be similar as I have some work scheduled at my house tomorrow that I need to be available to direct and approve. I have a few frozen casseroles on hand, but the best way to get what you want is to order online. www.marieandtwannettes.com/order. I need 48 hrs notice, so plan accordingly when you order. I've had several catering jobs over the past month and always happy to do yours!

Conover Farmers Market Announces New Downtown Location for 2026 Season

The Conover Farmers Market is entering its 18th season with an exciting new chapter: a move to Downtown Conover as part of the citywide *Conover Grows Together* initiative. The relocation strengthens the connection between local growers, makers, and the downtown business community while creating a more walkable, visible, and engaging experience for residents and visitors. 🌱🎉 Opening Day – Conover Farmers Market! 🎉🌱

For nearly two decades, the market has been a Saturday morning tradition, offering fresh produce, baked goods, handmade items, and family‑friendly activities. The new downtown location expands opportunities for vendors and merchants alike, bringing shared foot traffic and a more unified community experience.

“Downtown Conover has grown into a vibrant hub for families, small businesses, and community events,” said organizers of the Conover Farmers Market. “This move allows us to better support our vendors, increase visibility, and create a seamless connection between the market and the shops, restaurants, and services that make our city special.”

Benefits of the New Location:
- Increased visibility from main streets
- Safe, convenient pedestrian access to downtown businesses
- Expanded space for vendors, activities, and special events
- Strengthened collaboration between merchants and market vendors
- A more unified and welcoming Saturday experience for families

The 2026 season will feature themed market days, live music, children’s activities, and coordinated promotions with downtown merchants. Opening Day festivities will include special giveaways, vendor spotlights, and the official kickoff of *Conover Grows Together*, a collaborative campaign celebrating local business, community pride, and the spirit of growing together.

Season Dates:
Saturdays, May–October
Downtown Conover (full layout and parking map to be released in April)

Residents, visitors, and local businesses are invited to follow updates on social media and join in celebrating this milestone season.

We are so excited about the move, the collaboration with City of Conover, NC - Government and Conover Farmer's Market! Again- save the date for 🌱🎉 Opening Day – Conover Farmers Market! 🎉🌱

We had an awesome meeting with the City of Conover yesterday! As part of the Executive Committee for the Conover Farmer's Market, we are advocates for our fellow vendors and the market community!

The City shared that they are hard at work and have imminent results that will directly benefit the market in our new location across the road! Just to name a few: updated electricity, options for permanent signage, collaboration on marketing socials and materials, plus more in the works!

A big thank you to the whole team! The Conover Farmers Market season begins on Saturday May 2nd @ 8am! Tell someone about it!
