Root to Table Local Farmers

Meet the Local Farmers, Food Artisans, and Suppliers of the Blue Ridge

From protein to produce, our local farms are passionate about their product. Not all of our farms are open to the public but their products can be found in our restaurants as well as farmer markets and community stores and our food suppliers. Attend a Root to Table event and experience a conversation between our top chefs and local farms from how to cook the product to how to kick it up a notch. Learn about what is in your backyard. Start your healthy lifestyle today centered around locally sourced food.
