FROM LESLEY
Cheers!
In 2008, while looking for a job, I started planning food tours for family and friends. I planned wine and appetizer tours, barbecue tours, and farm tours. These were as much to plan as they were to do, and I started thinking there might be a market for food tours in North Carolina.
“Every guest from every week from every year is important to me and to our tour guides.”
