Our Asheville has had these and many other titles bestowed upon her. FOODTOPIA really describes it the best in my mind, because of all of the incredible places to eat here, and the wonderful, local organic food they serve. On Our Asheville site, we'll show you what a fun, unusual place this is to live.

Asheville, North Carolina is a national leader in local food promotion, with an abundance of local eateries serving food grown and produced in the Asheville area. Farmers and tailgate markets abound from May through October.

The local music and arts scene is just as incredible. There is an astounding series of festivals all year long including Bele Chere, the largest free street festival in the Southeast.

Do you like beer? Asheville has been voted Beer City USA for three years in a row now, with 9 great microbreweries in the area, and counting. We review some of them on our Asheville Breweries page.

Asheville is simply an amazing place to live, where the community strongly supports its own. There is something special about living in the worlds oldest mountains, and alongside the third oldest river in the world, The French Broad River. It behooves us all to become "Ashevillagers", and responsible stewards of this beautiful place.
