Fall Food Fest is a seasonal tasting event at the Chapel Hill Farmers' Market featuring complimentary samples of grilled meats, local peppers, and autumn beverages. Located outside University Place, this morning gathering is ideal for toddlers and elementary-aged children who can participate in a market-wide scavenger hunt while you shop. Admission is free, and there is plenty of flat, paved parking right in the mall lot, making it highly stroller-friendly. Bring a reusable water bottle to balance out the savory samples and a cooler bag if you plan to purchase local meats to take home. This event makes a smart Saturday morning stop because it combines your weekly grocery run with free entertainment and outdoor activity before the midday heat sets in.
