I sell at the Transylvania County Tailgate Market in Brevard, NC every Saturday, April thru December. If you've never sold at a tailgate or farmer's market, I encourage you to do so. It's so much fun and the family atmosphere is great. You will never meet a more friendly group of people whether it be other vendors or the people who come to shop. After a hard week of work it's so refreshing to be able to have the time to talk to others and have them be glad to talk to you. And you will know that those who come to shop have an appreciation for handmade, naturally raised and locally grown. Here are a few pictures I took yesterday at the market. It was a little slow yesterday. We didn't have full vendor attendance and our customer attendance was a down some but still a good time was had by all.
We are behind the Masonic Lodge and Comporium buildings on East Jordan St. in Brevard. You can see them in the background here.
This is Bettye who usually sells beside me every week. She's a wealth of info about crafts and makes the best pecan brittle you've ever eaten.
This is Gail who sells directly across from me. She is a baker extraordinaire. Her little french breakfast rolls are to die for!
The market is open April thru October on Tuesdays from 3:00pm until 7:00pm; Thursdays from 8:00am until 1:00pm; and Saturdays from 8:00am until 1:00pm. During the months of November and December it's Saturdays only from 10:00am until 1:00pm. If you ever find yourself in Brevard, NC when the market is open, stop by and get a taste of what a small hometown market is. You won't be disappointed!
