Watauga County Farmers' Market

Carol Miller is popular with snackers at Watauga County farmers' Market. Shoppers can choose from chocolate cookie wedges, vegan muffins, wholesome handmade bagels and cake slices with assorted fruit icings. Carol grinds her own grains for the treats and the breads she sells. She regularly grinds wheat, rye oat and corn for her whole grain flour. Rest assured that the items are fresh, Carol bakes her entire inventory less than one day before the market.

Carol also makes jams and jellies to compliment her bread, using organic fruit when possible.

Carol also has a large supply of herb vinegars made with organic ingredients and available in decorative bottles. These make excellent gifts and serve as a reminder of summer's experience. Herbs stored in vinegar will retain their flavors for about three years after the bottles are opened.
