Growing Local

It’s officially spring in the mountains and farmers are hard at work. In between preparing fields, planting seeds, and welcoming baby animals onto the farm, many farmers are also getting spring produce ready for market. A big change is happening to the Asheville City Market. Starting this Saturday, April 1, 2017, the market is moving to North Market Street. The road will be closed between Woodfin and East Walnut Streets so locals and visitors can enjoy farm-fresh food and products in an open-air setting with "street fair" flair.
