We are open Saturdays
until the end of October!
Attention Vendors! The current rules for the market are posted. Newer changes are highlighted.
The Watauga County Farmers' Market has been in operation since 1974, and is located at the Horn In The West in Boone, North Carolina. The market is a direct link between our local farmers and the consumer. Local support for farming allows increased awareness of good land practices, preservation of rural landscapes and lifestyles, and the minimal use of pesticides. The members of the farmers' market are proud of the high quality products we sell. We hope you will enjoy coming to the market as much as we do!
We have the High Country's finest selection of:
- Quality produce from local growers
- Fresh fruits and berries in season, jams, jellies, mustard and honey
- Fresh herbs and herbal products, including teas, salves, vinegars, soap and potpourri
- Flowers, fresh-cut and dried, wreaths and arrangements
- Fresh baked breads, cakes and pastries from our country kitchens
- Fresh farm eggs
- Farm based crafts: wool, birdhouses, pottery, baskets and handcrafted yard art and garden furniture
- A large selection of plants, including annuals, perennials and shrubs
- New and unique items every week
Watauga County Farmers' Market will be following the new extended season for Wednesday morning market. The market will now be open Wednesdays mid - June through mid - September. Come out and see us! You will find us at the Horn in the West. Take 105 Extension. Turn at the new First Citizens Bank onto Horn Avenue. Go 500 feet and we are on the left.
Market Going Tips
- Bring small bills so that making change is easier for sellers. Checks are generally accepted, most vendors are not set up to take credit cards.
- Many shoppers bring large bags or baskets to consolidate their purchases.
- Most vendors are happy to recycle or reuse: egg cartons, flower pots, berry baskets and bags.
- Please DO NOT bring pets into the market area. Service animals are welcome.
- Bring a picnic. Enjoy Horn In The West's picnic area or the nearby Boone Park. Desserts, fruits, vegetables, cheeses, bread and coffee are usually sold at the market.
