The City Market is now open in Hendersonville on Asheville Highway. The market offers fresh produce and other products grown or made within a 90-mile radius.

From Blue Ridge Now:

City Market carries 236 products, and 98 are from Henderson County alone.

“We don’t just talk about local; we are local. We grow most of the produce we sell,” Bobby Rogers said. “We utilize local agriculture from start to finish.”

They bring in fresh items daily from their 6-acre farm at Greys Reach Farms in the Crab Creek valley. The farm is a partner of the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project, which encourages local farmers to connect with local markets.

Its website lists the following products:

• Local & Organic Produce
• Jams, Jellies, Relishes & Honey
• Artisan  Cheeses
• Farm Raised Meats & Eggs
• Fresh Baked Goods
• Craft Beers & Wines
