The market, sponsored by LIVE FOR LIFE, Duke's employee wellness program, will occur weekly on Duke's campus from April through June 25 and every other week from July 9 to Oct. 1. Throughout the season, about a dozen farmers and vendors will offer Duke comunity members an easy way to pick up fresh produce like strawberries, below, sold by Lyon Farms.
