Please share with me some NC food products (which are sealed) I can buy to send across country. I am fairly new to the state & all I can think of is BBQ sauce! Thank you
You should look to see if there's a good co-op grocery near you - I know there are co-ops in Asheville (French Broad), Greensboro (Deep Roots), Pittsboro (Chatham Marketplace), Chapel Hill/Carrboro/Hillsborough (Weaver Street Market) and Wilmington (Tidal Creek). They tend to specialize in carrying local/state artisanal stuff, from wines to cookies to local honey, you name it. Find one of those places and you could probably walk out with bags and bags of NC goodies.
Too bad you can't easily ship frozen stuff - Locopops, in Durham, has been picking up national press. I'd second the mention of Immaculate Baking Company as well: along with outstanding cookies, they've made donations of school arts programs, so they have a great track record for community involvement and re-investing (in many ways) in the state.
