I am half Polish and I haven't seen any Polish communities in NC.

There's a huge and vibrant Polish community in Toronto!

There doesn't seem to be any that I've run across yet.....The Poles seem to have settled further North, as there was always a thriving Polish community across Northern Ohio. (I can still taste the perogies at the street fairs!)

Hi Magdelena,

I was brought up with Polish traditions and attended a Polish Catholic School in Ct. I currently live in Fayetteville, NC and the closest thing to the Polish culture here is Mrs. T's pierogies in the freezer section of the supermarket. I really can't think of any Polish communities in the state. Perhaps try a google search. Good luck.

Hi - Kroeger's in Wakefield and Raleigh have a small Polish food section in the international aisle. There must be enough people of that origin who buy the products, or they wouldn't devote shelf space to them.

You don't have to be Polish to enjoy Polish food!
