"3 Day Weekend"




Early in the summer I read that Turner South would be in the Triad filming their popular cable series, "3 Day Weekend". My first thought was that they should visit the Greensboro Farmers' Curb Market. The love and dedication for this unique market is shown by the farmers that show up before dawn and the early bird shoppers that follow shortly after. It's also where I would take an out of town guest that is visiting Greensboro.

My thought had become a memory until I heard from Mark File, Marketing Director for Quaintance-Weaver Restaurants & Hotels. As host to the Turner South crew, Mark emphatically suggested that they visit the Greensboro Farmers' Curb Market on a Saturday morning.

Now, thanks to Mark and others at Quaintance-Weaver who support the market, Turner South will be filming at the Greensboro Farmers' Curb Market on Saturday November 12, 2005. What a wonderful opportunity to spotlight our community jewel that has long been a tradition to many families in the Triad.

Though the filming crew of Turner South has missed the busy summer season, the market is filling up with a bountiful fall harvest as well as local artist gearing up for the holiday season. I hope you will mark your calendar to visit us at the market and help us turn on the southern hospitality, naturally!

*Filming scheduled to begin at 7 a.m.
