BLACK MOUNTAIN TAILGATE MARKET
About Black Mountain Tailgate Market
The Black Mountain Tailgate Market is a Saturday morning shopping event featuring organic and sustainably grown produce and proteins, native plants, freshly cut flowers and herbs, artisan-made bread, pastries, cheese, and so much more!
SPRING MARKET SERIES: March 1 - April 12 (10 am - 1 pm)
MAIN MARKET SEASON: May 3 - November 22 (9 am - 1 pm)
HOLIDAY MARKETS: Saturdays in December - other details TBD
Our Spring Market Series and Holiday Markets will be held at White Horse Black Mountain beginning in 2025!
Our Main Season market is nestled just two blocks North of the beautiful heart of Black Mountain, in a partly shaded, grassy field. We are proud to offer live music, children's activities, and to an array of local artists, craftspeople, and youth entrepreneurs. We are delighted to offer SNAP and SNAP incentives and participate in the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program! Every Saturday is a family event with an intimate, community feel. We're in the business of spreading sunshine - every Saturday from March through December.
Black Mountain Tailgate Market participates in ASAP's Farm Fresh Produce Prescription and the WNC Double SNAP Network.
