Seems to me the time has come to protect ourselves by purchasing local foods. Colette Nester is making this opportunity available with her work with 17 local farmers in Allegheny and Ashe counties in North Carolina and Grayson County in Virginia. A leader in Grayson LandCare, a cooperative community venture that facilitates people working together to improve incomes, improve community services, and protect our lands and waters, Ms. Nester is setting a good example. The store she has opened in Roaring Gap, North Carolina provides an outlet for participating farmers and increases the demands for local products.
Very exciting,
Jerry Moles

Thank you for posting about Colette and the Blue Ridge Farmers Market, LLC of Roaring Gap, NC. It is open Thursday thru Saturday, 9-1 at this time. Hopefully they will have so much business that they will be able to open more hours in the future!!
