About Us

Our Story

The East Tennessee Farmer's Association (FARM) is a historic agricultural co-op with a mission to assist local farmers in retailing their produce and farm goods directly to the community. Our co-op members includes local farmers, growers, bread bakers and artisans. Since 1976 we have worked together to create vibrant marketplaces in our East Tennessee communities. Visitors to FARM markets will meet local farmers and growers, enjoy fresh baked goods and discover art created by local craftsman. Shop our markets for locally grown and produced vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs, cheese, honey, PLUS garden plants and cut flowers. We are your source for LOCAL food and much more!

Administrative tasks are carried out with a Board of Directors, Market Managers, and Committees.  Expenses are paid by funds generated from a sales commission and annual membership fees.
