Farmers Spring Festival takes place Saturday, March 23, 2024, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., on Academy Street in Downtown Cary, NC.
It’s free to attend.
This annual festival takes place in a new location this year in coordination with the Cary Downtown Farmers Market’s move to the new Downtown Cary Park.
Over 130 local makers’ booths will line Academy Street, the Old Library Park, and Frantz Square with items they make here in the Triangle. Not only will locally made sustainable crafts be for sale, but festival-goers can learn more about sustainable practices from booths with info about reducing waste, recycling, solar energy, and composting.
The Main Stage will feature fantastic Triangle musical groups: Blue Sky Crying at 9 a.m. followed by The Ashley La Rue band at 12:30 p.m., playing at the Pavillion in the new park.
Don’t miss the Once in a Blue Moon Pie Eating Contest at noon during our band break on the Great Lawn!
A variety of food trucks and local brewers round out the offerings.
Families can enjoy free fun in the Dedicated Children’s Village in the Old Library Park with a bounce house right in the middle of the action.
Enjoy Cary’s expanded social district as you can walk with your alcoholic beverages throughout the festival footprint.
The Cary Downtown Farmers Market partners with the Town of Cary to produce the festival and our presenting sponsor is Dr Charles A Mann DDS.
