We are so lucky to have a bounty of Farmers Markets to choose from in beautiful Asheville and the surrounding area. What better way to teach kids how to eat healthfully than to surround them with fresh grown fruits and vegetables from our local farmers, where they can make the connection between what they eat and where it comes from. In addition to local foods, many of our markets have local crafts, live music, and family friendly entertainment and activities, as well.

❗️👉 See them all on our events calendar HERE >>>http://bit.ly/AVLAreaFarmersMkts

Many of our markets also accept SNAP/EBT! See the descriptions for each market or scroll to the bottom of this page for a list of markets that accept SNAP/EBT, and detailed instructions on how to use your card to make the most of the market.
