A producer-only farmers market in Wanchese featuring fresh produce, rotating artisans and so much more. Our family of producers join each market in person to share food and goods that they have grown or crafted themselves, here in Northeastern North Carolina.

The Hatteras Volunteer Fire Department will be the seasonal home of the fish fry from May 25 until August 31. A large plate is $15 and includes two pieces of locally caught fish, southern potato salad, cole slaw, and hush puppies, with sweet or unsweet tea, and homemade desserts available for a donation. The fish fry is held every Saturday at the Hatteras Fire Station from Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day Weekend, from 5:00 p.m. until dinner is sold out.

With a long-standing history, the Manteo Farmers Market has built a reputation for offering a wide variety of locally sourced goods. From fresh produce like corn, tomatoes, and blueberries to handcrafted items such as pottery, glasswork, and textiles, the market truly offers a taste of the Outer Banks. Local artists often showcase their work here, adding a splash of color and creativity to the market scene. The Manteo Farmers Market is open every Saturday from early May through mid-September from 9AM to 1PM.
