As soon as I step into this store I feel calm, healthy and special ‍ There's no Earth Fare where I…read morelive so I pretty much visit every time I'm in Boone and if I have time I walk up and down all the aisles! The store is nicely arranged, shelves stay neat and well-stocked, and they offer so many products that you don't see anywhere else. I always check out the fresh baked goods, specialty canned coffees (for the car ride home!), snacks, yogurts, fresh pasta, and the clearance shelves in the back of the store. Staff is pleasant and knowledgeable. Most items are priced at a premium but, they are premium products, There are often good sales and a lot of items are fairly reasonable. The ladies' room could usually use a little attention and/or something in it is often broken, but I appreciate the fact that they have public restrooms available. During the pandemic when we could not enter our App student's dorm and many restaurants were closed, I'm not sure where else we might have been able to visit after driving up the mountain, and to me that is more important!! They always have a lovely selection of plants and fresh flowers at the front of the store to greet you, these made a lovely gift for our student after dance performances.

The food is more flavorful having been made a few hours before opening. I had an egg salad croissant that was refreshing and rich. The suppliers are aware that the best tasting food is not made in industrial parks but on smaller farms. I shop at Earthfare for many reasons but their fruit is crisp and bright. Specifically, their apples are the best around ! Shopping is a calm experience which is a plus for me.

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.

If you have NEVER been to any sort of farm this may interest you. We were not impressed and…read morehonestly a little bored. Maybe it was the young female guide that seemed bored to be there. She was a nice girl and was not rude she was just not very informative about the farm - she told us more about a mule passing gas than she did about the history of the farm or the alpacas - many people had to ask questions to get any information. There were alpacas - couldn't touch them that day, there was a pot belly pig, lots of goats, one cow and 2 horses. The tour consisted of more walking around the farm than learning. I'm sorry - I just thought for the amount of time it took to get there and at 20$ per person it would be more informative.

I lived in Boone for 3…read moreyears, just moved 5 hours away 3 weeks ago, and am already back this weekend, with a major motivator being wanting to come to this Watauga Co. farmers market for the nice people, beautiful cool weather, amazing vendors selling crafts and fresh, local, organic foods, and the overall vibe. If you're ever in town on a Saturday, make sure you come. The earlier, the better, too. I think the market is open until 11 or 12, but if you want first pick of vegetables, artwork, and flowers, the earlier the better. Like 9am kind of early. No worries, you can make your first stop the coffee station or a food truck for breakfast -- my favorite being the breakfast pizza at AMB's Farm to Flame truck, which is ALWAYS here every Saturday rain or shine.

The products here have always been of good quality and there's always a great selection. This store brand has always been a sort of a novelty in my opinion although the description is "general store" all but one location I have visited is very upscale and resembles more of a general merchandise retailer offering lots of clothing and outdoor supplies verses what the original intent was at its inception. It's a great place to browse and find something unique - the staff here was very friendly and engaging it's worth stopping in...
