Nearly a year ago, Darrel Baker and Earnest Williams hatched an idea for an open-air market in the North Davidson community. The idea was to provide a space where sellers could earn extra cash and shoppers could find great deals.
Today the NoDa Flea Market is doing just that, but it’s also helping to connect a community.
Each weekend vendors set up their merchandise in the parking lot of NODA Storage (which Baker manages) on N. Davidson St. In a rough economy, Baker and Williams said, it is a way for some to earn needed money.
