My favorite farmers market, and I've been to them all over the country. 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.

He is from the Deep Gap area. Lamb from Mountain Memories delicious too. I wish this market were bigger, but it certainly is a relaxing way to shop for local, healthy food. *(beat eggs well with a fork, pour into cast-iron medium hot pan with a little olive oil. Grind in a bit of pepper. In about 30 seconds, stir and "chop" with a wooden spoon for a few seconds. Turn off heat. Stir until done. They don't even need salt.)

Was on the hunt for some produce. Made out with fresh eggs, local honey and a much needed sliced sourdough loaf. The town is stunning alone. Park by the library and bring your totes.

This store featured tons of vegan options which I personally didn't expect. On my end, I found a lot of great hard cider selections that I have not seen it all since I started my vacation here. Plenty of great snacks and it even have food that they can make for you. Staff after was absolutely friendly and made us felt welcome here. People here they're shopping are also super friendly. I also took a Prebiotic soda with me as well for the journey. Overall, I was ultimately impressed by the store! There's also tons of meats here as well as tons of cheeses. All this is crammed inside of this small little store so these owners do a great job doing what they do.

I guess I hit this place not at peak season. There were some peaches, pricey watermelons and a very…read morefew containers of blackberries and blueberries in the cooler. The peaches were firm, not quite ripe. I bought a basket to make cobbler and ice cream. At the checkout the cashier addressed a guy behind me, checking a basket of peaches. She was not happy, spoke to him, rolled her eyes. Not very friendly. I finished by getting a scoop of peach ice cream and one of blackberry. The blackberry was a bit seedy. Both were icy, like ice milk, not cream. This orchard was recommended and I drove an hour to check it out. I wouldn't make the trip again.

I love the amount of shade that is at this market. Lots of trees but not a lot of parking. I loved a few of the vendors including the kombucha and the kimchi shot guy.

I would definitely come back. Bring your own bags.
