If you value fresh organic produce, check out King Street Market, Boone's newest weekday farmer's market.
The market offers fresh produce, eggs, meats, goat cheese, baked goods and other foods from local farms, many of which you won't see anywhere else in Watauga County. In addition, vendors include local artists offering scroll art and baskets, photography, tie-dye, one-of-a-kind henna tattoos, and organic skincare.
Market Manager Julia McIntyre stated in recent news: “We are thrilled to establish this market with the support of Blue Ridge Women in Agriculture, and great cooperation from the Watauga County Commissioners and the Watauga County Health Department. There has been interest in a weekday farmers market for some time here in the Boone area. With the growth in local organic farming and an increase in demand reaching a tipping point, it seemed like the right time to set this in motion.”
In addition to food, art and other wares, there's music, special events, and food trucks, something for the whole family to enjoy.
