Markets

Visiting a producer-only tailgate market means that you’ll be able to buy nutrient dense, fresh produce from Ivy Creek while you also stock up on fresh meats, local eggs, and delicious baked goods. Ivy Creek Family Farm sets up a booth of produce and flowers at the:

North Asheville Tailgate Market on Saturday mornings from 8am-noon.
Weaverville Tailgate Market on Wednesdays from 2-6pm.

Farm Stand

Ivy Creek stocks a small farm stand with a refrigerator to be able to sell produce to the community seven days a week. The vegetables vary depending on what’s in season. Come by and purchase Ivy Creek vegetables and fruits anytime! It’s a self-serve honor system.

Restaurants

When Chef Philip Bollhoefer arrived to volunteer with us seven years ago he changed the way we farm at Ivy Creek and the way we work with chefs. Pulling carrots from the ground, he watched us grade them. “What are you doing with those baby carrots?” he wondered. And with that, Ivy Creek Family Farm began growing baby carrots for chefs. Since then we have specialized our crops to fit chef’s plates, their pallets, and their inventions.

Every tour we hold with chefs and every meeting we hold with them deepens our partnerships. At Ivy Creek, we love growing great food for great chefs. We meet with chefs annually to dream about the upcoming season and integrate their requests into our growing plan. We grow staples that they use on a daily basis, and we experiment with new vegetables, edible flowers, or specialty items they are interested in trialing. We welcome restaurant staff, both from the kitchen and the front of the house, to the farm for tours and farm experiences.

We send lists of availability and deliver to chefs twice weekly from March to December each year. Contact us anytime to request our availability lists or to schedule a meeting to explore Ivy Creek growing crops for your restaurant.
