Chatham Mills Farmers Market is in it’s third season in downtown Pittsboro at Historic Chatham Mills. The market runs Saturdays from 8am to 1pm through November and features a variety of fresh local produce, meats, cow’s milk cheese, and arts, as well as live music and chef’s demos.

The Abundance Foundation is based in Pittsboro and promotes sustainability and local foods in the Triangle area through a variety of events and workshops for adults and kids.
