Tailgate and Farmers Markets in Haywood County

#WNC 
While I was at the Community Fair at Enka Middle School, a couple weeks ago, I picked up an Asap Local Food Guide from a booth set up by the Appalachian State Collage. In the pamphlet, is a list of over 800 local listings of family farms and local food business!! I would like to share some of those listings with you. Buying from the community helps more than just yourself. You are not only buying fresh locally grown/bred food but your helping local families make a living. Everyone needs to pay their bills and fill up their tummies



The following listings will be in ABC order

I thought their would of been more tailgate and farmers markets in Madison County but I guess I was wrong, I've only been in Madison County a couple times and I wasn't paying much attention to my surroundings either time, so I don't remember much.

I love going to WNC Farmers Market! That's the only one on the list that I have visited personally and the people are wonderful. You can find some very nice people at Farmers Markets that you wouldn't necessarily meet or talk to in any other setting.

I will be posting more listing for Buncombe County soon. The listings will include Roadside stands, Family Farms and more. Keep an eye out!
