There’s also Raleigh nearby!

Raleigh State Farmers Market - but don’t eat much that morning! Lots of stuff besides “farm” products.

North Carolina Museum of History in Raleigh includes exhibits on pottery and furniture (key NC crafts) and a Sports Hall of Fame (key NC activity!!!). The museum exhibits are very well done and interesting – if you like that kind of thing.

Gregg Museum on NC State Campus has a very interesting Costume/Fabric exhibit going on through the summer.

The North Carolina Museum of Art is in a new building and has numerous pieces by well known artists including a Rodin collection.

Good stuff mentioned in other posts. I don’t consider my 3-4 times/year visit to that area complete without a trip to Southern Seasons in Chapel Hill. Don’t miss it! There’s a restaurant attached called the Weathervane. Great food.
