During growing season I'm told they stock a good deal of the fresh produce from their own farm. I found some varieties of beans I'd never heard of before, like cranberry beans and yellow-eyed peas. They've got some other things like you'd find in a standard grocery store, like PET milk and a few varieties of juice. The space isn't too fussy - concrete floor inside, a dirt and gravel parking lot. It's clean though, and they've got shopping baskets and plastic bags for carrying fruits and veggies. The prices are at least comparable to a chain grocery, if not better on some items. For example, their eggs are between $2 and $3 per dozen. Feels like what a farm market should. I'll be going back regularly.

I love the amount of shade that is at this market. Lots of trees but not a lot of parking. I loved a few of the vendors including the kombucha and the kimchi shot guy. I also picked up an assortment of hot peppers for a fair price. In my opinion many of the items are overpriced. I get making a profit but 8 dollars for a small chocolate bar seems a bit much. I would definitely come back. Bring your own bags.

The aroma of chocolate wraps around you the second you walk through the door -- rich, warm, and completely unforgettable. There's an entire area where you can watch the actual machines they use to craft their chocolate, which adds so much charm and character. But our favorite part was the cozy coffee section. A simple caramel latte ended up being the highlight -- balanced, smooth, and exactly what we didn't know we needed. A little moment of serendipity we're glad we found.

We're talking some ripe, sweet South Carolina peaches, some just-picked local strawberries, zucchini, beans, cantaloupe, okra ... and on and on. Rows of yummy items, and behind them arrayed on several shelves are jars of honey, jams, preserves and almost anything else you could imagine. The folks running it are most helpful, and they helped assemble a bushel of ripening peaches for our road trip. We were knocked out by what we found her and spent nearly $100 to satisfy our produce desires. We wouldn't be surprised if you do too!

"Old Timey Soda Pops". The gentleman who owns it is probably one of the most pleasant people I've ever met. Another HUGE PLUS in this town of uppity uncharitable people, he accepts EBT. Evidently that is a brand new practice at the state funded Farmers Market. What a joke. Most local businesses feel that ebt recipients in Asheville should be doomed to rotten veggies and canned goods from the dent and scratch grocers. This gentleman stands head and shoulders above the rest of this wretched city. And his produce does too! PS...and he carries ramps in the spring!!!...YUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!
