The recipes developed for this story are meant to salute North Carolina farm products, while adding a few new elements to enhance the flavors and great selection grown in state.
And while there’s nothing like a homemade pie crust, we won’t tell if you use store-bought – the fillings are the stars for these recipes.
Blueberries, blackberries and black raspberries flourish throughout the state. If you don’t grow them yourself, fear not. Produce stands and farmers markets are happy to oblige if you want to indulge in these seasonal favorites. A juicy, fresh berry trumps just about any flavor out there. If you buy berries, try to exert some self-control and save a couple of pints for our Black and Blueberry Pie. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to a slightly warmed piece for a slice of summer heaven.

I tried to send an article idea to the address you have in the magazine ncfieldfamily.org/story and it’s saying not a valid address. Do you have another address because I don’t want to retype what I have already typed via this comment.

I love Field and Family- the new NC Farm Bureau magazine. The articles are well written and interesting and I love the recipe section. Can hardly wait to try this month’s lemon pie. Vivian Howard’s recipes are always great.
I don’t know who decided to update magazine but GREAT idea! Hit a home run!!
Love the articles in this magazine
