FOOD PHILOSOPHY

Quality

​

At Buffalo Cove, the basis of our food philosophy lies in quality. To us, this means applying our three pillars--respect for ourselves, respect for our community, and respect for the land--directly to the food we prepare.

​

Local

​

We prioritize buying local foods first, followed by organic and natural ingredients. We are so fortunate to work with many inspiring producers in the area, from farmers and flour mills to bakeries and dairies:

 

• Full Moon Farm

• Against the Grain

• Aunt Bessie's Natural Foods

• Cheeks Farmstead Creamery

• Be Natural Market

• Fruits, Veggies, & More

• Jim's Produce

• High Country Food Hub

• Springhouse Farm

• Carolina Ground

• Stick Boy Bread Co.

• Watauga County Farmers Market

 

Homemade

​

Homemade is our trend (if at all possible) using the freshest, ripest, and most delicious fruits, veggies, eggs, meats, and dairy products available. In this way, we greatly limit fuel exhaustion, pollution of the planet, and mistreatment of animals while supporting producers in our area and teaching about healthy eating. Most importantly, we feed our community very well!
