About the Market

Background

The Jonesborough Farmers Market, managed by the non-profit Jonesborough Locally Grown, has established itself as a vital community hub since its inception. Known for its commitment to local agriculture, the market ensures that all vendors are located within a 100-mile radius, providing the freshest products to the community.

Practices

By maintaining a strict producer-only policy, the market supports local farmers and artisans, fostering a direct connection between producers and consumers. This approach not only guarantees the freshness of the products but also strengthens the local economy and reduces the carbon footprint associated with long-distance food transportation.

The Rest

The market operates a summer market from May to October behind the Courthouse in Downtown Jonesborough and a Winter Market on select Saturdays from November to April in front of Boone Street Market. Boone Street Market serves as a year-round retail store. The market accepts debit, credit, and SNAP-EBT cards and participates in the Double Up Food Bucks SNAP match program. Additionally, a walking program during the summer market awards $5 to each walker for the purchase of fresh produce.
