Leaf it to Us - A 30 Day Fall Guide - Day 4
Fall in the North Georgia mountains is about more than changing leaves. It is also the season for farm stands filled with apples, pumpkins, potatoes, squash, local honey and all the things that make you want to go home and cook something warm.
If you are visiting the mountains this fall, make **Cate Farm Market in Morganton** one of your stops. Right now, their market is full of the season with Osage tomatoes, Golden Delicious and September Wonder apples, Yukon Gold and Mississippi sweet potatoes, cabbage, okra, zucchini, pickling cucumbers and local honey.
And, of course, the pumpkins have arrived! You will find Jack-o’-lanterns for the porch, pie pumpkins for the kitchen and beautiful Cinderella pumpkins that look like fall decorations all by themselves.
There is something about stopping at a local farm market on a cool mountain day, filling the car with apples and pumpkins, and taking a little bit of North Georgia home with you. Cate Farm is one of those places worth adding to your fall wandering.
📍 Cate Farm Market
12400 Appalachian Hwy, Morganton, GA
Monday–Saturday | 10 AM–5 PM
Come for the leaves. Stay for the mountains. And make room in the car for a pumpkin or two.
