Lunsford Farm Produce Market opened recently at Tryon Mountain Hardware. The owners are three farmers who work about 100 acres in Polk County and more in Henderson County. They offer many types of produce, hay and all-natural beef and pork. Meg Lunsford, one of the owners, said, “We are always looking for other farmers who would like to sell their produce that we don’t grow or that we’ve run out of.”
The owners said they have taken the Mountain BizWorks business class at the old Mill Spring school and have worked with Lynn Sprague, Polk County’s agricultural development director.
