The Black Mountain Tailgate Market is a Saturday morning open-air 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! Our little 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 and crafts people as well as kid-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 May through mid-November.
Black Mountain Tailgate Market participates in ASAP's Farm Fresh Produce Prescription and the WNC Double SNAP Network.

Our market season is from May 6, 2023 to November 18, 2023.
While we let our farmers and artisans rest and recharge for the winter, we are cooking up an array of events and activities to keep our little market fresh! In May, we'll be coming in hot with a lineup of talented Local Musicians to serenade market-goers, improved infrastructure and unique market features, volunteer programs, and exciting new collaborations with local non-profits. We can't wait to see all your smiling faces in May! Stay tuned for what's new at the Black Mountain Tailgate Market!
