Josh's Farmer's Market Reopens With New Mooresville Location
The family-owned farmer's market has expanded its offerings and is operating in a new location at Lowe's YMCA in Mooresville.
MOORESVILLE, NC — Josh's Farmer's Market is back in operation, and has reopened at a new open-air site at Lowe's YMCA in Mooresville. The market location at 170 Knox Avenue is a behind the YMCA's main building, and is expected to remain in place for the coming year.
"This is a temporary location until we can move to our permanent 4.5 acre-site just a mile south at the intersection of Williamson and Sundown Roads, hopefully by spring 2022," market owner Josh Graham said in a statement. "We're really excited to be at the Y in the interim. Parking and access are much easier, and we've doubled our space so we can represent and promote more vendors than ever before."
Access to fresh locally grown produce is also a benefit for YMCA patrons, said executive director Ashley Morgan.
