10 Shopping in Boone That You Shouldn't Miss
Named for legendary explorer, Daniel Boone, Boone, North Carolina retains the pioneer spirit, despite having grown into a busy college town, the home of Appalachian State University. The surrounding area is one of the country's best destinations for outdoor adventures. Walk across the Mile High Swinging Bridge to Grandfather Mountain's Linville Peak, the highest point in the Blue Ridge Mountains, or grab your bike and head to Pisgah National Forest, featuring over 200 miles of exciting trails.

Great place for Sat morning trip. Local veggies , flowers , meats etc. Live music and activity area for kids. We had great pastries from one of the vendors. Both sweet and savory . Coffee available and Pizza wagon sells water. No dogs allowed into the market area but the market butts up to the Heritage park and dogs are allowed there. Rest rooms are in the park as well as tables and benches if you need to rest. The Heritage park is a good place to visit on your own or take a cheap interpretive tour by one of the guides.

30 years ago we stumbled upon the "original" Mast General Store and Post Office in Valle Crucis with our then 4 year old son. Now we are back visiting Boone with are son, daughter-in-law and 4 year old grand-daughter. As Grandparents are apt to do, we use the excuse, "it's a family tradition", to take our grand-daughter into the Mast General Store in Boone. In no way does this store resemble the original store in Valle Crucis. This is much newer and a wee bit larger!!!!! However, they did keep the barrels of candy and abundance of toys departments. To say our grand-daughter was overwhelmed is an understatement. Needless to say her parents were not the least bit happy with grandmom and grandpop. Three pounds of candy and two stuffed animals and were outta there.!!!!! Oh, I should say the clothing and shoe departments are very good!!!
