Company Overview


The Apple Hill Farm Outpost is an extension of the working alpaca farm, Apple Hill Farm. The Outpost is located in Downtown Banner Elk.  We are expanding our business and needing both full time and part time help.


The Outpost carries a wide range of alpaca fiber products— socks, scarves, hats, gloves, shawls, and vests. The Fiber Arts Room is home to alpaca yarns in every color, along with high-quality knitting, crochet, and needle felting supplies.


The Apple Hill Farm Outpost also features a Local Food Marketplace, highlighting local agriculture, featuring products from Ashe County Cheese, Trosley Farm, Old Beech Mountain Farms, Old Turnpike Farm, Shipley Farms Beef, among others. We feature a variety of ready-to-eat dips, heat-and-serve pies, and specialty foods made right here in North Carolina.


Whether you're a local or a visitor, the Apple Hill Farm Outpost is a place to slow down, connect with local agriculture, and bring home something special.


The Apple Hill Farm Outpost is open from 10 am to 6 pm, daily, for the summer season!
