My dear friend and neighbor is raising money for local farmers. If you have ever been to the North Asheville Tailgate Market, you know what a treasure it is. Please lend your support if you are able.

My name is Diane Saccone and in 2011, I organized and began the first winter market in western North Carolina to help farmers receive much needed financial resources during the leaner winter months.
This concept continues to keep our farmers sustainable year round.
Now I need your help.
16 of these farms sustained catastrophic damage from the storm and many live in communities that were wiped out.
I am raising $50,000 to help these farmers and supporting businesses get back on their feet so they can continue to serve our community.
My Venmo account is listed above.
Farms in need include;
R Farm
Dry Ridge Farm
Blue Ridge Mountain Creamery
Black Trumpet Farm
Wildwood Herbal Farm
Hickory Nut Gap Farm
Blood and Spicebush Apothecary
Sweetheart Bakery
And so many more.
I appreciate all you can offer to help.
With deep gratitude
Diane Saccone
