The market attracts 400 to 700 customers each Saturday during the main season and over 1,000 during special events. The market operates Saturdays only from April through October, with a separate holiday market in late November and early December featuring seasonal items. The market offers paved vendor parking, Wi-Fi, and bathrooms. Vendors must be homegrown, produced, or handmade by the vendor in Ashe County or adjacent counties.
