About the Market::

Come experience the spirit of Ashe County and Western Appalachia at the Ashe County Farmer’s Market.!  Farmers, artists and crafts people convene to sell products that are home grown and hand made in Ashe County.  You will find an abundance of fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, meats, herbs and flowers raised on rich mountain soil.  Select a gift for someone special from the booth of a local artist or a mountain crafter.  Or take home a soothing bar of goat’s milk soap or a jar of homemade apple butter for yourself!  See wool being spun or a sheep being sheared, sample grilled, grass fed beef, listen to some old Appalachian music or just come by to chat with old friends.  The Ashe County Farmer’s Market offers something for everyone!
