Matthews Community Farmers' Market

"Such a beautiful way to spend a Saturday morning. We enjoyed the coffee while we shopped for some local goodness. Enjoyed samples from the goat cheese place and chatting with makers of all sorts. We arrived around 10:15 and much of the food offerings were sold out by then. It was gorgeous outside today so it was a popular place to be! All of the colors of vegetables and the smiles of my community brightened my weekend. We will be back and make this a regular part of our weekends. Next time I hope they are not sold out of pickles."

"I don't always get up early enough, or want to get out of my jammies, in time to go to this market. But every time I do, I'm glad I did! Everything is locally grown or produced and tastes so good and fresh! I love the mushrooms from Urban Gourmet Farms and the goat cheese (get the honey version!) Doesn't take long to see it all, but you COULD get a cup of coffee and a cinnamon bun and sit and listen to the live music they always have..."

"If you haven't been here on a Saturday morning, you have to go. The parking is free and stays packed while the market is open. There is everything from organic vegetables, natural honey, chicken, beef, eggs, cheese, and many more food items. You can get a handmade cinnabun with coffee while you shop for fresh vegetables."

"love MCFM. They have the best vendors and embody community. Love their produce, local handmade gifts, and fresh bread and flowers. Best farmer’s market in the charlotte area!"

"Matthews is kind of far from us, so we don't make it out this way often. We were coming for lunch and decided to come early for the farmers market. They have plenty of free parking off of the alley behind the market. I love not having to worry about finding parking. The market is really nice. It is still their winter hours until April, so it was only open from 8am-10am which I was surprised by. That seems so early to end. Especially because it's so much colder in the morning. I've been to a handful of the farmers markets around town and I think this is one of the nicer ones. They have nice stalls for each vendor. There's a good variety of produce and pre-made local products. We got a bagel and donut from Team Rose Bread as well as a bun from Bun Apetit. Everything was fantastic. We'll definitely come back in the warmer months when we can browse more and stay a little longer without being so cold."
