HILLSBOROUGH — Seasonal eating with ingredients that come from local farms will accent The Eno River Farmers Market’s second “Hillsborough Harvest Dinner, An Evening at the Eno River Farmers Market,” in historic downtown Hillsborough on Saturday.
The market will host the dinner, featuring all locally raised products cooked by market chefs.
Chef Austin Genke of Box Carr will use pork, lamb, vegetables, fruit, cheese, and baked goods from Eno River Farmers Market vendors to prepare an elegant, sit-down, farm-to-fork dinner for 72 guests.
The event, which is sponsored by the market and the Orange County Visitors Bureau, is intended to celebrate local farmers and sustainably grown foods, and take advantage of the beautiful Public Market House, in which the farmers market is held every Saturday morning.

HILLSBOROUGH — At 7 years old, Will Endres was curious about nature.
And while growing up, he said he spent a lot of time dashing through the forest looking for an adventure outside the Kanawha Valley in West Virginia.
“I’ve always been drawn to things in the woods,” said Endres, as he flashed a smile while talking about his early years of loving the outdoors.

About Taste Carolina Gourmet Food Tours
Taste Carolina Gourmet Food Tours takes participants behind-the-scenes of the area’s best and most unique restaurants, farms, farmers markets, and specialty stores to chat with chefs, owners, and artisans and sample incredible food.

Founded in March 2009 by Joe Philipose and Lesley Stracks-Mullem, Taste Carolina is the Triangle’s first foodie-focused tour company. “What better way to get to know a place and its people than to eat its food?” explained Philipose. “Our tours are as compelling for residents as for visitors; they give locals a unique opportunity to be face-to-face with chefs and artisans they’ve only read about.”
Hillsborough, NC (December 6, 2010) – Summer may be long gone, but fresh, local vegetables are still available every week at the Eno River Farmers Market. The ERFM continues to offer vegetables, eggs, meat, cheese, baked goods, and prepared foods all through the winter.
Vegetable vendors will have beets, radishes, turnips, carrots, lettuce, and greens of every variety. A lot of the produce at the market is grown without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. We encourage you to ask the vendors about their growing methods. Several vendors sell certified organic produce.
I think what I love most about the packaging that these Artisan Flatbread Crackers from The Accidental Baker come in is that all the information usually hidden in the back (in fine print of ingredients and the company’s address) is in big bold text on the front of their packaging. Just shows how proud they are of their products.
We have some great gift baskets which we will be rolling out this fall; at least on of which includes these crackers. Happily during the photo shoot I was able to sample the Roasted Garlic & Rosemary variety. They are simple, with 7 ingredients, and are made with organic flour and packaged in compostable bags. Excellent crackers.
The Eno River Farmers Market in historic downtown Hillsborough offers farm fresh produce, cheese, meat, eggs, baked goods, prepared foods, and crafts from local growers and producers.
