Local Produce
The fresh mountain air, rich soils, crystal clear rivers and temperate climate lend themselves to the growing of a great array of produce, many specific to this area. The local timber industry harvests wood from softwood pine plantations and hardwood forests. Farmers raise beef, alpacas, goats, trout, salmon, harvest grapes, hops, flowers, trees, green tea, olives, lavender, fruit (apples, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, cherries etc,) vegetables, especially asparagus and chestnuts, walnuts, hazelnuts…and most are available to you via farm sales, road side stalls, markets and of course via our retail outlets.
Produce is seasonal, however with the diversity of the produce there is always plenty of choice available.
