Spend Friday evening at the Heartwood Beats & Bites Farmers Market, where local shopping, delicious food and live music create an easygoing night in the park.

Browse farm-fresh produce, handmade goods from local makers and specialty treats including jams, honey, roasted nuts and more. Grab dinner from a market vendor, food truck or Heartwood restaurant, then bring a blanket or find a spot near the stage.

Bekah Lemonds performs on the Beats & Bites Stage from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m., adding a live soundtrack to an evening built around good food, local talent and community connection.

With lawn games, picnic tables and plenty of room to relax, this is a Friday night worth slowing down for.
