Piedmont Fresh: Cultivating community through local food

A Vision for Local Food Sustainability

Piedmont Fresh was founded with a simple yet powerful mission: to connect local farmers, artisans, and food producers with consumers who value fresh, high-quality, and locally sourced products. Recognizing the importance of a thriving regional food system, Piedmont Fresh serves as a bridge between small-scale producers and community members seeking healthy, sustainable, and delicious food options.

Rooted in Tradition, Growing for the Future

The Piedmont region of North Carolina has a rich agricultural heritage. For generations, farmers have worked the land, producing an abundance of fruits, vegetables, dairy, and meats. However, as industrial food systems expanded, local growers faced challenges in reaching consumers directly. Piedmont Fresh emerged as a solution—bringing together a diverse network of farmers, bakers, butchers, and other food artisans to offer their goods through a convenient and accessible online marketplace.

How It Works: Fresh, Local, and Easy

Piedmont Fresh makes it easy for customers to enjoy farm-to-table goodness with an online shopping experience that is both simple and community-driven:

Ordering Made Simple – Every Friday at 12:00 PM, the online cart opens, giving customers the opportunity to select from a variety of fresh local produce, meats, dairy, and specialty goods. The cart remains open until Monday at 11:59 PM, ensuring ample time for shoppers to place their orders.

Convenient Pick-Up Locations – Every Thursday, orders can be picked up from one of several local businesses and community hubs, helping to strengthen ties between local food producers and the neighborhoods they serve. These pick-up locations include:

  • 🔴 Greater Vision Outreach Center, Thomasville, NC

  • 🟢 Acadia Foods, Winston-Salem, NC

  • 🟡 Brown Truck Brewery, High Point, NC

  • 🟠 Goose and the Monkey Brew House, Lexington, NC

  • 🔴 Coffee Park Airstream, Winston-Salem, NC

More Than a Marketplace – A Movement

At Piedmont Fresh, it’s about more than just buying groceries—it’s about fostering a sustainable food system, supporting local farmers, and celebrating the flavors of North Carolina. Each purchase not only provides customers with farm-fresh products but also contributes to a stronger, more resilient local economy.
