My Roots are at NC State

My Roots NC Vendor Map

The “My Roots are at NC State” program connects University Dining with North Carolina growers, manufacturers, processors, and producers to increase our ability to purchase locally and highlight the wealth of products grown and produced in our state. It also gives us an opportunity to share stories of NC State alumni working for these companies and how their work positively impacts our efforts to provide the best food possible for our students, faculty and staff.
