Nothing says summer in Fayetteville like a juicy watermelon—and the Farmers’ Market is going all out with a Watermelon Festival on August 9! Picture this: speed eating contests for all ages, taste tests, and a live cooking demo from Chef Albert Rey. It’s more than just fruit; it’s a full-on community celebration right on the downtown square. The festival was pushed back a week since watermelon season is running late, but that just means we get the best, ripest melons. Mark your calendars and let’s talk: what’s your favorite way to enjoy watermelon? #Food #Fayetteville #FarmersMarket
