About the 30 Mile Meal Project:
The 30 Mile Meal brand and project provides a shared identity for our many farmers, specialty food producers, farmers and retail markets, food events, and independently-owned eateries and bars featuring locally sourced menus. All create and nurture our 'garden of eatin.'
The 30 Mile Meal Project is a collaboration of the ACCVB, the Appalachian Center for Economic Networks (ACEnet) and 130+ local food partners. This initiative pushes the envelope on the growing 100 Mile Meal movement with our own 'super-local' effort to assist visitors and residents in finding local foods and places where you can savor the flavors and food experiences of our region. Here's a quick look at some of the people and places of the 30 Mile Meal. Your can read about our mission, vision, and guiding principles here.
