WNC Farmers Market wins grant for retail upgrade

The Western North Carolina Farmers Market has been awarded a $380,000 grant from the Buncombe County Tourism Development Authority to help pay for the renovation of the Market Shops building, a project designed to encourage more shoppers, particularly during winter months. “The WNC Farmers Market has been a popular Asheville tourist site for nearly 40 years,” Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler said in a news release. “With the support of the Buncombe County Tourism Development Authority, we will be able to make improvements so that the market can continue to be a destination for tourists and locals alike.” The TDA awarded the grant from its Tourism Product Development Fund.
