Get Local
Join farmers, chefs, fellow community members, and ASAP in celebrating a featured local food each month!
This February, think trout - local mountain trout, of course!
To Get Local:
1) Enjoy the month's featured ingredient at many of the area's Appalachian Grown restaurants. Participating eateries will use the ingredient
to create their own unique dishes that reflect our region's changing, seasonal harvest.
2) Find the featured food at groceries, roadside
farm stands, and farmers tailgates to create your own unique dishes.
Find recipes from local chefs using featured ingredients in our recipe section.
