Honeygirl Meadery

Honeygirl Meadery is a small urban meadery in downtown Durham, making an ancient craft beverage for modern days. Made in the heart of Durham, North Carolina, Honeygirl meads (honey wines) are hand-crafted libations made in small batches with all-natural ingredients. Our mission is to celebrate nature and the work of honeybees by making meads with seasonal fruits, flowers, herbs and honey. Owner Diane Currier started Honeygirl in 2014 and has continued to grow their line up over the past several years. A modern meadmaker, Diane continually experiments with different flavors and techniques in making her meads. All of our meads are naturally gluten free. We use both local and global true source honey to fully access the terroir of the honeybee and to experience all the places the bees have visited . Many of our meads contain local fruits, herbs and flowers from Durham and its surrounding areas to further accentuate our "drink the field" philosophy and bring the garden to your glass.

Visit our downtown Durham Tasting Room just one mile away from the market - open on Thursdays from 4-8 pm, Fridays from 4-8 pm, Saturdays from 12-8 pm and Sundays 12-5 pm. We hold tours of our facility on Saturdays at 2 and 3 pm.

This week at the market we will be sampling our Hibiscus Lemonthyme Mead, a dry-style mead with NC wildflower honey, dried hibiscus petals and fresh lemonthyme from the Durham Farmers Market; our Mango Mead, made with clover honey and juicy mangos ; and our Lavender Mead , made with orange blossom honey and infused with fresh-dried local lavender flowers.

We will also have bottles available of our Spiced Apple Cyser and our Strawbanero Mead.

Chapel Hill Creamery

Fresh Mozzarella is here and we have plenty of it this weekend! Enjoy it in Caprese salad with local tomatoes and basil, add to a sub sandwich with our Hot Italian sausage, or use for a homemade pizza with eggplant and mushrooms from the market. We also have our fresh, unaged Dairyland Farmers cheese, which is great on a tomato sandwich; it also melts smoothly for burritos or frittatas. Our aged cheeses this week include savory Hickory Grove, the stronger washed rind Danziger, 7 month aged Calvander, and Carolina Moon. Use the Hickory Grove for a great cheeseburger and the Calvander for pesto while basil is available. Pick up a few of our cheeses for a cheese plate or to take on a picnic.

Pork Chops are in and we have some nice Spare Ribs for grilling or roasting. Our pork is part of our sustainability since the pigs drink the whey that comes from cheese making. Only about 10% of the solids in milk becomes cheese, the rest is the liquid whey which is nutritious for the pigs. Sausages are made with the hams for extra meatiness and we sourced the spices for the varieties we think you'll enjoy. Choices of sausage include Bratwurst, Mild and Hot Italian, Polish with garlic and mustard, Chorizo, Smoked Andouille, Mild and Hot Breakfast, and Sage and Maple Breakfast. We also have ground pork and a little ground beef. Pull out your grill or your favorite recipe for this weekend. Bring your cooler and enjoy the market!

Celebrity Dairy

Dear Durham Farmers' Market friends,

My time at Celebrity Dairy is coming to an end. After four well-spent years of cheesemaking and selling at markets, it is time to move on towards new adventures. I want to thank my customers and fellow farmers who have made coming to market each week a family gathering. Many of you have shared your joy, kindness, and everything life brings us with me and I appreciate having you to do the same. I will miss you and will carry you in my heart. Thank you to Celebrity Dairy for bringing us together.

I will not be going too far. The animals will go "moooo" instead of "baaaa". I am very excited to begin as a cheesemaker at Chapel Hill Creamery. Also thrilled to expand my knowledge of cheese from just goat to cow. Chances are I will be coming to this market in the future so a "goodbye" seems unnecessary. Come by market this Saturday as Celebrity Dairy will be making a return and we can exchange, so long, for nows.

With love,

Zoila Rauda

Homebucha

Make your market an experience with an ice cold natural beverage from Homebucha! We offer multiple flavors of our locally fermented probiotic tea, and will also be serving iced matcha on these warm summer Saturdays. Matcha is a specially processed green tea, grown in the shade to encourage the plant to produce extra antioxidants and caffeine. One cup of matcha has the nutritional content of 10 cups of regular green tea! The leaves are then dried and stone ground to produce a vibrant green powder that we mix into a refreshing icy drink. Stop by to cool out with a kombucha or matcha!

We open our farm to the public during our monthly farm dinners, farm tours, birthday parties and other private events. Visit our website for more information or send an e-mail to [email protected].

Soul Cocina

Soul Cocina is a combination of eco-friendly philosophy and cutting-edge, dynamic approach to plant-based cuisine. We draw inspiration from Latin-American traditions and the availability of locally grown produce to create imaginative concepts.

We offer delicious tamales made the artisan way: with love, care and attention to detail. To ensure we respect tradition, we source wholesome ingredients before steaming them in banana leaves, creating a flavorsome and aromatic product. We pride ourselves on taste and quality, and it won't go unnoticed. Every bite you take will give you a taste of the rich Colombian heritage our tamales are built on.

We will also have soups and pasteles de yuca: delicious roasted yuca pockets filled with red lentils, brown rice and spinach. A handheld food very similar to empanadas, only gluten-free and made with wholesome ingredients!

Take home our ready to eat tamales and pasteles de de yuca or come hungry to the market because we also offer them warm to eat while you shop!

Botanist & Barrel

Botanist & Barrel crafts a variety of ciders, sours, and dry fruit wines. Using techniques from wine-making, brewing, and mixology they are constantly blurring the lines. They are Orange County's first winery and cidery, situated just north of Hillsborough, on Cedar Grove Blueberry Farm. They are also farmers raising dry farmed, no-spray, organic blueberries, for the best estate grown fruit on earth.

Founded in 2017 by brother and sister team and Orange County natives, Lyndon and Kether Smith focus on light-handed winemaking using old world methods with modern sensibilities. They lean towards whole fruit fermentation and make natural beverages with no additives or forced carbonation. They ferment to zero residual sugar and the ABV ranges from 7% to 15.5%. The ciders and wines are raw, wild, unfined, unfiltered, unpasteurized and you will find both still and sparkling ciders. They age in everything from tequila barrels, to sea salt bourbon barrels, to rum, to sauternes, to tawny port to bourbon maple syrup barrels.

Botanist & Barrel is hyper-local, sourcing ingredients whenever possible from within 200 miles of our farmhouse winery.

Thanks,

Lyndon Smith
