Fantastic, huge farmer's market in Charlotte. I've been to the one in Raleigh, and I thought that…read morewas the biggest and the best, but this one is a close runner-up. It has everything you want from a farmer's market, with three huge barn tents: - One full of greenery and herbs - Another with fruits and vegetables - Another one with all the wonderful stuff from vendors We even bought a massive cedar, beautiful live edge cutting board for only $40. You have to come and visit this place.

I was very surprised at how good this farmers market was compared to the one in Raleigh....it was…read morein some ways better. We made a full sweep of the buildings, there was a great variety of veggies, meats, and other locally sourced items. We bought a few things and felt this is a great place to return to in the future.

If your looking for fresh fruit, vegetables, eggs or raw peanuts look no further you will find them…read morehere! Cash's has been open just over four months and by the looks of things already has a regular following. Prices are fair just four dollars for a small basket of peaches (9 of them). Looking at the peaches on the counter later in the evening had to wash and try one. Wow, first bite in was glad I was standing over the kitchen sink so much flavor and so juicy. Melons were two for five. People were snapping them up as quick as they could put them out. Staff is friendly and even knows the state the prduce comes from. Next time I'm in Hickory will definitely be stopping in. I may even go out of my way for those tomatos? If your in the area Cash's is worth a look.

This was my second time coming to this market, my first visit was in the fall, and everything was…read moregreat! You know that first time experience! Old school candies, good veggies, white sweet potatoes, pecans, etc... this second visit - summer - hmmmm... not as good fruit were over ripe (watermelon, cantaloupe)... not much to select from as far as veggie, and the novelty of taking such a long drive wore off quickly! The service was ok, as they were unpacking items, they really don't have enough working space as patrons have to step over or detour the small carts in such a small area to get around the employees who work the register as well as stock the bins/shelves, freezer, refrigerator, etc.

The corn that I had also wanted to get looked really bad, so my husband asked the man running the place how long he had had the corn. Today is Thursday. Initially the man said "Since Thursday." Then he changed his mind and said Tuesday...and he surely should have said a week ago Tuesday, that's how cruddy it looked. He also seemed very snarky about my husband picking through the cantaloupes and smelling the corn. When I checked out, he said "$50.26." I paid with my debit card and failed to get a receipt. He actually charged me $63.26 according to my bank. There has been a very nice lady behind the counter before but this guy was rude and overcharged me.

Lots of souvenirs to choose from. Employees were super friendly and efficient and gave great jam recommendations! Affordable prices.

This is a neat place to stop at…read more This was our first time here. They have a little of everything from peanuts, jars of jams and pickles, homemade bird houses. There was a lot to look at and prices were not too bad being a tourist spot. If someone is on vacation this would be the place to stop at! There is so many items that they could bring home. No one acknowledged us being there, they had a few customers at the counter and a few walking around. If you have to use a restroom they do offer a outhouse, and it was clean to use. We didn't personally see anything we had to buy since we stop at some others in the area when we take a ride. We will for sure stop by again especially if we need any jar items or cider. They did just get some apples in as well they looked good.

You must stop by to get their fruits, slushies, and hand pies in season. Spring: Strawberries, strawberry slushies, and strawberry hand pies. Summer: Peaches, peach slushies, and peach hand pies. The peach slushies taste like you are drinking a frozen form of a peach, and my favorite of the three! Fall: Apples, apple slushies, and apple hand pies. They have other fruits and veggies, but those are the main ones to stop for. They also have several jams and jellies, ice cream, and a few other baked goods. They are always friendly, too! So worth the stop and not too far from I-26.

If you're looking for a apple house with a little history this just might be the spot. This…read morebusiness sits on a very narrow strip of land between the roadway and the boulder filled mountain creek where chilled water pours down from the higher elevations, it's a tranquil setting and the tree canopy provides a shady bank to sit among the massive rocks and listen to nature, depending on the time of the year a passing car may be slightly distracting but those unnatural noises are easily tuned out. You can also rent a picnic table for a dollar an hour if you've packed a lunch or just want to take a break. The old gentleman attending store here passes his time greeting the visitors from his rustic rocking chair near the front entrance he probably won't stand unless there's something to ring up on the antique cash register and it's definitely a cash only business - I noticed a old refrigerator containing tall bottles of pops, the sweat on the glass door seemed so inviting so I grabbed a cold bottle of Mountain Dew and paid the two bucks and threw in an extra dollar for his trouble after he popped the top with the backside of an old church key opener. He mumbled something about having to raise the price to pay for the refrigeration, I nodded and didn't challenge his comment as I put the glass bottle to my lips and turned it upwards. What appeared to be a antique bottle turned out to have glass threads so I guess the distributor has yet to inform him the bottles are all twist tops so I didn't feel I should be the one to break his nostalgic gesture of popping the top although finding this out it did temper my childhood memories a bit. This building is old and it appears it's been expanded over the years although it definitely wasn't last year - this wooden structure seems sound and a nice place to escape the sun and provides adequate protection for the fruits and vegetables. I walked around the areas that were accessible and avoided those areas that seemed to filled with decades of junk and were structurally challenged. I like these kind of places and I think they have a lot of historic value and I don't know the plan when this old man calls it a day but I'm sure it will not be the same. The selection of apples is minimal, I'm sure he buys a few boxes at a time from the local growers they looked okay and I don't know anything about pricing it may be a bargain but not sure what a bag of apples goes for in the area. It was a great place to stop and visit but probably not one I'd frequent even if I lived right down the road...

We were taking a drive along the blue ridge then decided to head into Lake Lure. We found a cute post office in Bat Cave, NC. Once you get to the post, continue driving towards Lake Lure and you will find this place a short distance down the road on the right hand side. They have apple butter, honey, apples, and a variety of other items. The setting is park like along the broad river. You can pay to park there and hang out by the river for the day, or pay by the hour $1 for picnic table use. Parking is free for customers and you can walk down and look at the river/ take pictures and leave for free, but if you linger for too long, parking fees are wanted. This is a quaint shop and the tree covered benches is a great place to stop and have a picnic. Well worth the $1 if you're on a road trip!
