TerraVITA: a coupon + a few good reasons to attend

Um, look, since we’re pals and everything, you’ll understand why I’m going to feel a little ill if I don’t see your pretty face at TerraVITA this Saturday. I mean, you say you love the food scene here in North Carolina and you love to talk to friends about seasonal eating. You’d love to get out more and explore the other fabulous restaurants around this great state but you just haven’t found time – it’s been a crazy summer. I get it. Things have been nuts.

You know what is even more nuts? Missing TerraVITA. It can be tough to convince your favorite friend or lover to join you for a few hours sampling delicious food, booze, and bevvies on a gorgeous fall afternoon. So, let me do the dirty work for you. Please note the following reasons you need to be at TerraVITA in Southern Village this Saturday.

• You have a 15% off discount code to use, enter Grow2 at checkout. JACKPOT.
• You don’t really understand what “biodynamic” means or why it matters, but you kinda wanna.
• You freaking adore jam or jelly or pickle produced by the good hands of April McGreger (Farmer’s Daughter), and you’d love to know how this gifted woman got into the canning biz…and why it matters.
• Open Eye is your favorite spot for a cup of coffee in the Chapelboro. You finally get to meet the globetrotting guru behind that magic – Scott Conary!
• You keep hearing great things about restaurants like Chef & the Farmer (Kinston) and On the Square (Tarboro) but just ain’t in the mood to drive that far east for eats this year. Guess what? They’re at TerraVITA.
• You keep hearing great things about Farmhand Foods and The Pig and want to know more about this Animal Welfare Approved stuff.

Soooo, yeeeeah. Like I said. You have a 15% off discount code to use, enter Grow2 at checkout. JACKPOT.
