Never been to this place but I purchased their product from a produce stand on my recent visit home…read moreto North Carolina. Not usually one to get up in arms about a product but this was the best jar of honey I've ever tasted. Don't know if it's the bees, the pure product, or something they may have done but it is delicious. Can't wait till I move back to North Carolina so I can have access to these fine products on a regular basis and can't wait to try more. Awesome company!

I purchased a jar of strawberry jam at Food Lion in Eden, NC. I was happy to see that an NC company…read moreowned this, and couldn't wait to try the jam. Unfortunately, the jam is not jam, but just jelly with only seeds. Not jam, which is supposed to include the fruit. I called the number on the label, and someone named Henry (he said) answered and would leave me hanging and he did not respond, with many seconds of me saying his name and he wasn't answering me. I was extremely polite and felt that the company should know that their product is lacking in quality, but he didn't show any interest and said good-bye. I assure you, my intentions were kind, but he was not at all kind, and he was disinterested. I dumped my "jelly-not-jam" down the sink, and won't be buying their products again. A very disappointing product and customer-service experience.

The Alleghany Farmers Market is located in Crouse Park in downtown Sparta, NC. It is held in a…read morecovered area, and there is free parking close by. The market was larger than I expected and had a great variety of vendors. Each vendor must live within a 30-mile radius of Sparta, NC. What a great way to find local High Country products! The market had less produce on the Saturday I was there, as it is still early in the growing season. There were a variety of vendors, and the market was larger than I expected. There were some beautiful potted plants and flowers, local honey, and arts and crafts. I ended up getting some beautiful photography notecards, and I just loved the art pieces featuring pressed flowers and leaves. I would have gotten some fresh farm eggs, but I wasn't sure about them being left in a hot car for days. This market is a wonderful community gathering spot that perfectly captures the heart and local talent of the mountains. I highly recommend taking a Saturday morning stroll through the booths if you are passing through town!
