Locavore Travel: A Fall Fest, Millionaire-Style

August 11, 2008 at 2:00 PM | 0 Comments

There may be a few more weeks of summer, but we're already longing for the cooler breezes of sweater weather. The Field to Table Festival at the grand Biltmore mansion hits a couple of our fall-plan hot buttons: The setting is impeccable and the potential menus, delicious.

Sustainable agriculture experts will be on hand September 19 through 28 to discuss the estate's River Bend Farm and its efforts to work with area farmers. Pairings from the estate winery will also be available when you sit down to a delicious local meal. Whether you combine the trip with a tour of the mansion and farm or just come by for the food, it's a trip that's perfectly in season.
