NC Statewide Fresh Food Guide Book Launches

"Fram Fresh North Carolina"

March 11 - 12, Asheville NC. Farm Fresh North Carolina by Diane Daniel gets a weekend of introductory activities in Asheville. The publication is the first statewide guide of its kind and includes 425 farms, produce stands, farmers' markets, wineries,  pumpkin patches and corn mazes, pick-your-own orchards, restaurants, bed and breakfasts and agricultural festivals. The author has personally visited each one of the open-to-the-public places.

This weekend's festivities begin at Laurey's Café, 67 Biltmore Ave at 7 PM, with a Western Launch Party. Both Farmers and fans gather for food and beverages provided by the University of North Carolina Press.

Saturday's events find Diane Daniel at The Grove Park Inn until 1 PM for signings and book purchases, and at Malaprops by 3 PM hosting the conversation "From Farm to Fork" with chef William Dissen of Market Place in Asheville and Missy Huger of Jake's Farm in Candler. The formal activities are followed by veggie nibbling and book signing.
