When you eat
in a restaurant, do you think about the farms that provide your meal? At
excellent way to visit the source of your food is the annual farm tours conducted
in our state.

Earlier
this year I explored several farms as part of the Piedmont Farm Tour,
held on the final weekend every April by the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association.
This tour is one of two in North Carolina – the other is the Eastern Triangle
Farm Tour – and one of four that the association sponsors. One farm – the
Captain J.S. Pope Farm -- in particular is intriguing.
