Description

Join host Ryan Webber as he sits down with Josh Graham, owner of one of the Lake Norman area's most beloved businesses - Josh's Farmers Market. In this engaging conversation, Josh shares the incredible journey from selling cantaloupes as a 10-year-old boy from his great-grandfather's garden to building one of the region's largest and most popular farmers markets.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How a childhood summer job selling cantaloupes for 75 cents turned into a thriving business
• The challenges of operating without a permanent location - including six moves in five years
• The incredible community support that kept the business alive during uncertain times
• Josh's philosophy of putting quality over profit and treating customers like family
• What goes into sourcing fresh produce, grass-fed beef, and specialty items from across the region
• The exciting news about their new permanent location at the Lowes YMCA (opening April 2026)
• Future plans including hand-dipped ice cream, on-site meat cutting, and a licensed kitchen

Josh's story is a testament to passion, perseverance, and the power of community support. From humble beginnings to becoming a Saturday destination that draws crowds so large you can barely find parking, this is the story of how one family's dedication to quality and service created a true local institution.

Whether you're a longtime customer or new to the area, this episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at what makes Josh's Farmers Market special and why it has such a devoted following throughout the Lake Norman region.
