I took it back the next day with the receipt and the customer service representative said when it left their place, it was in good condition and would not even listen to me. For Christians and as a customer service representative, this is not the way to handle things. I am a local and have been to Crowders several times and I've never had this experience with them before. Buy your pot hangers off Amazon. It is safer.

On a quiet week day in the spring, we were able to enjoy the steep drive up the mountain and the views that greeted us without lots of people and cars coming and going. You can still buy the cider, donuts, ice cream, and more. You also can relax and shop their very cute country store, which sells locally made jams, syrups, mixes, and other foods. They also have lovely dish towels and many other such gift items. We recommend going both in the fall to be part of the festivities as well as in the spring and summer.

During our recent visit to Carter Mountain Orchard we skipped the apple‑picking portion, but the…read moreexperience was still well worth the trip. Views From the orchard's main patio, the panorama stretches across rolling hills, doted farms, and nearby towns. It was perfect fall view. Food The freshly baked donuts are a standout--light, fluffy, and lightly glazed with just enough sweetness to satisfy without overwhelming. The accompanying cookies are similarly delightful: crisp on the edges, chewy in the center, and speckled with bits of chocolate or oatmeal that ad texture. Both items are perfectly paired with a cup of hot cider. While the apple‑picking experience is a highlight for many, the combination of panoramic vistas, fresh donuts, and comforting cookies makes it a worthwhile destination even for those who prefer to stay on the ground. It's an ideal spot for a casual outing, a quick photo session, or a sweet snack break amid beautiful surroundings.

We were hoping to find a vineyard and found Spring Run on one of our searches. We were unable to reach anyone by telephone at first but it was already kind of late in the day so we just drove over there and unfortunately for us, we happened to go when it was closed. We called while we were in the parking lot and the super friendly owner answered and apologized that she was closed that day but talked us into visiting them the next day. We almost didn't make it the next day but we managed it and I'm so happy that we did! The owners are super friendly and explained the history of the vineyard and it was so beautiful and peaceful to just sit there and enjoy some wine and cheese and talk to the owners. We did wine flights and my favorite was their blackberry wine which we both ended up taking bottles of home with us. I thought the blackberry wine would be too sweet as I'm not a fan of sweet wine but it was more fruity than sweet and had the perfect taste. We also tried the Goot Essa Cheese and Rip Rap crackers and I can honestly say that it was some of the best cheese I had ever tasted! It's a 3 year sharp cheddar and it went perfectly with our wine flights! We also ended up taking a couple souvenir shirts with us as a memory to our awesome experience. I have family in Virginia and will definitely be making time to visit this vineyard again when I make it back!

Every now and then you need to take a step back and soak it all in. My time spent at Misty Morning was wonderful. We signed up for a bread making class. The bread we made was Challah bread. Challah is a special Jewish bread that is typically eaten on ceremonial occasions (the Sabbath) and major Jewish holidays. It was a gorgeous sunny day in late October when we made our delicious Challah bread. We made the more complicated four braid version. This course allows you to make everything from start to finish. We rolled out the dough, we made the braids, and we each took our loaves of bread home with us. You haven't lived until you've eaten fresh Challah bread straight from the oven. We also made the version with cinnamon and sugar. Decedent isn't even close to how good this bread is. While making the bread we also got to learn more about renewable resources and sustainable farming. Misty Morning Sunrise Farm is, you guessed it, 42 acres of sustainable farmland that has been owned and operated by three generations. It was an absolute privilege to walk the grounds and learn more about heirloom vegetables, local raw honey, pasture-raised goats, chickens and bees. We of course got to see the goats and chickens, and even the bees. Yes, I took home some raw honey and of course a dozen eggs. Would I go back? IN A HEARTBEAT. Thanks for everything Misty Morning! You'll be seeing us again.
