| - Located just off of Old Monroe Rd, adjacent to the Rock Store BBQ, is my idea of the perfect produce stand. Beautiful, fresh produce, local and well-priced (and clearly priced). Mom and I stopped today before the storms and got three grocery bags full of different items for $25, including some of the biggest, juiciest blackberries that I think I have ever had.
I appreciated that they had local honey in small containers - I only use a couple of teaspoons a week, so the small container for $4 from Waxhaw was perfect.
Tomatoes, corn, all shades of peppers, jalapenos, melons, peaches, nectarines, bananas, mushrooms, lettuces, NC sweet potatoes, several varieties of potatoes, okra, beans, oh my - so many thing to choose from. Friendly, helpful staff. Get there early for best choice and best parking.
This market is a bit of a hike from me, but they have another stand that I stopped at on the way home to check for figs at the Shell station at the corner of Providence and Ballantyne Commons Pkwy. I will return if for nothing other than the blackberries - amazing.
