Greensboro Farmers Curb Market

Greensboro Farmers Market (GFM) is a 501c3 community nonprofit.

The Greensboro Farmers Curb Market is a producer-only farmers market with all products originating 100 miles or less from Greensboro. GFM relies on fundraisers, grants, and community donations to operate the Market, subsidize vendor tables, and coordinate food security programs.

Our History

The Curb Market, probably the oldest producers’ market in North Carolina, was founded by the City of Greensboro in 1874.

Who are we?

Greensboro Farmers Market (GFM), a 501c3 non-profit, operates the Greensboro Farmers Curb Market on behalf of the City of Greensboro. Among its responsibilities to the City is ensuring the Market remains a producer only market; i.e., the products sold at the Market are grown or made by the sellers. About seventy-five percent of annual table rentals are to farmers, maintaining the Curb Market as a vibrant source of fresh foods year-round!

The Market currently has 175 vendor tables and 100+/- vendors, many of whom rent tables by the day. About 250,000 customers visit the Market each year with peak summer days drawing over 4000 – 7000 customers. Monthly pancake and breakfast fundraisers are popular and provide vital funds to the operation of the Market and the Market’s food security programs. 

Food Security Programs:

We believe everyone should have access to FRESH and NUTRITIOUS foods and therefore GFM navigates partnerships and grant funding to increase our food security programming. Not only do these programs provide healthy foods to those in need, but they also increase our farmers’ incomes and work to strengthen our local food system.

Greensboro Farmers Market, Inc. connects farmers, food and friends to foster an equitable, nutritious food system, and support local entrepreneurs in an inviting, inclusive community.
