Catawba Valley Farmers Market

The Catawba Valley Farmers Market (CVFM) is held at the Catawba Community Center, located at 4965 Catawba Creek Road, Catawba, VA 24070. The Farmers Market is held each Thursday, 3:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m., beginning the first Thursday in May to the second week of October, rain or shine. The Farmers Market first opened May 27, 2010 at the Catawba Mercantile, just out the road from the present location. The Market moved to the Community Center in May, 2011. The mission of the CVFM is to foster community fellowship while providing the Catawba community and surrounding areas with fresh, locally produced food and traditional handicrafts. All foods and handicrafts are required to be grown/produced within 100 miles of the Market; most are grown/produced within just a few miles. The Market policies require that at least 60% of the vendors sell food products, while the remaining 40% may sell handicrafts. This ensures that the CVFM will remain a true “farmers market”. Vendors are required to comply with all government regulations relating to their products. The Catawba Community Center is a Roanoke County Park with a playground, basketball/tennis court, open yard space, restrooms and free parking. The farmers market space is handicap accessible. As an added service and convenience for our customers, we have a “Wooden Nickel” program. This works very similar to an ATM. See our “Payment” page for full details. We do hope you will stop by to see us on Thursdays to enjoy a true country atmosphere with great people and delicious local vegetables, fruits, meats, eggs, baked goods, handmade crafts and so much more!
