Items sold in this picturesque open-air market are grown and made with love, and it shows. Local farmers, craftsmen, and artists gather here under colorful tents selling the bounty of the season. Fresh produce and meats of every imaginable kind can be found here on any given Saturday. Tomatoes, corn, green beans, peppers, onions, squashes and lettuces of every type offer you a chance to prepare the ultimate farm-to-table meal. New this year, there’s also a vendor who brings a variety of fresh seafood from the coast of North Carolina, and a vendor who sells pork sausage, bacon and pork chops from his own pigs. This is the place to locally source a complete meal. You’ll also find fresh eggs, homemade breads, pastries, pies, quiches, jams, jellies, relishes, and dips, just to mention a few of the many delicious items available. Your options are practically limitless so take your time to savor the selections. It’s a new and different delight every week so plan to start your weekend choosing the best of the mountains. Don’t forget to check out all the local craft items available for sale here too. Your perfect basket, homemade quilt, beautiful picture or piece of pottery will take on a special meaning when you have a chance to meet the artist, and hear firsthand the inspiration and hard work that went into each piece.
