High Country Farmers Markets


Visiting a local High Country farmers market is one of the best ways to get to know the local people, culture and flavor of the High Country. You may pick up a local recipe or see a native flowering plant that only grows in this part of the Appalachian Mountains. The farmers might direct you to their favorite picnic spot or a hidden place to pick your own wild berries.  You will also find many stands along the country roads featuring local honey, jams and produce.  See the list below for dates and locations of all the High Country Farmers Markets in Banner Elk, Boone, Blowing Rock, West Jefferson, Sparta and Wilkesboro for 2023:
