Do you enjoy supporting local folks? How about the unmistakable taste difference found in specialty produce and meats brought from sometimes just a few miles away?

The State of North Carolina is a truly a vegetable lovers delight. I purposely moved to this wonderful area a few years back for a multitude of reasons. As one that seeks out farmers markets, it didn’t take long for me to notice the pride that North Carolina takes in not only its agriculture, buy also other artesian products like nuts, cheese, beef, honey.  

Join us while we learn first-hand about the bounty of products North Carolina has to offer, including tips, tricks and recipes from the people that grow and/or create them. Ideas for places we can go include not just farmers markets, but also the numerous non-chain markets and vineyards that dot the Raleigh/Durham and surrounding areas. Learning/sightseeing trips can be just a few hours at a market to an overnight jaunt to visit farms in the fall, etc., etc. All suggestions are welcome.
