Several farmers will have local molasses this weekend which comes from the sorghum shown here.

Watauga County Farmers' Market will be open for one more regular market this year. There will be plenty of fresh local produce, eggs, meats, a fine selection of specialty foods, wreathes and great art and crafts. The supply of local apples is holding up and of course you will need a pumpkin for decor and pies.
