Welcome to the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project's Local Food Guide for western North Carolina Blue Ridge and the southern Appalachian mountains. This guide will facilitate your connection with healthy fresh food, your neighbor farmers who grow it and those markets, grocers and restaurants that are committed to using locally grown food in their enterprises.

By buying directly from local farmers and shopping and dining at those businesses that support local farmers, you are getting the freshest, best-tasting food, contributing to a strong local economy, and helping preserve our rural mountain landscape.
