Support Local Farmers - Buy Produce at Food Lion
Food Lion partners with local farmers and manufacturers who work hard to make sure that you get quality produce, every day and at a great value. Through a cooperative effort, we have worked with farmers in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia, labeling certain fruits and vegetables in our stores to help you find the local grown produce of your choice. Look for produce labeled "Got To Be NC!", "Certified South Carolina" and "Virginia Grown".

Choose Virginia Grown Produce – Fresh from Local Farmers
Local Virginia Grown fruits and vegetables are as fresh as possible because they are picked only when they are ripe and ready, and then transported down the road, not across the country. With this exceptional freshness, you also get extraordinary flavor, the way produce is meant to taste. As a bonus, with Virginia Grown vegetables and fruits, you also get a low calorie, high fiber nutrition boost, which includes a healthy dose of vitamins C and A plus antioxidants. And because you’re buying local, you help support Virginia farmers.
