In our early years, a portion of every dollar will go back to the WNC region through the MOUNTAINS LIGHTS Impact Fund, starting with local farmers - because food and farming are the first economy. is MOUNTAIN LIGHTS fiscal sponsor, a nonprofit that supports mission-aligned projects by receiving and managing grant funds on its behalf. This arrangement allows MOUNTAIN LIGHTS to access charitable funding while focusing on creative film programming, with the Black Mountain Tailgate Market ensuring transparency and compliance through its Nourish Appalachia program.

The main season market starts today May 2nd 9am–12pm 🥕🥦🍓
