The Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership, local farmers and the Town’s Parks and Recreation Department are working to establish an afternoon farmers’ market on top of the Wallace Parking Deck this spring. Organizers say the proposed market, which would follow the models of farmers’ markets in Carrboro, Hillsborough and Fearrington Village, would support the partnership’s goal of increasing downtown traffic. In addition to the fresh produce, flowers, meats and other farmers’ market products to be sold, organizers are also considering featuring live music and entertainment, as well as offering downtown business and restaurants the opportunity to sell their products.
