🐮 The wagyu for Raleigh`s newest restaurant @pizzeriaditerritorio starts on a farm an hour south of Raleigh.
I taught Elementary school with Jaclyn Smith, co-owner of Wilders Farm back in 2008. @wilderswagyu
🤠 Now she and her husband raise wagyu and Berkshire pork out in Turkey, in Sampson County, and it`s headed straight for Pizzeria Diterritorio when it opens downtown near Red Hat Amphitheater early next year.
🐄 No distributor. No truck from out of state. Just a husband-and-wife farm an hour away and a chef who drove out to himself to approve it for his menu!
That`s the thing about North Carolina food. Pull one thread and the whole state`s connected.
You don`t have to wait for the restaurant to taste it either. Wilders is at the North Hills Midtown Farmers Market every Saturday. (seasonal so check times) @midtownfarmers @visitnorthhills
👉 Send this to your fellow foodie. We`re following the whole build to opening and are working with the Pizzeria di Territorio team to bring you the inside scoop!

Most people don`t know that you can bike from the NC Museum of Art to downtown Raleigh along the greenways.
🚲 The Art to Heart Trail is a 6-mile greenway bike trail and one of our favorite adventure activities.
It starts in the museum park, joins the Reedy Creek Greenway, then crosses over I-440.
Follow along as we make pit stops for local coffee, pizza, beer & wings, and take in some classic Raleigh skyline views along the way.
Comment “ART TO HEART” to get our detailed guide via DM that you can follow.

Today is Veterans Day and we honor military veterans of the United States Armed Forces.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice 🙏
Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) is a federal holiday in the United States observed annually on November 11.
Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when the Armistice with Germany went into effect.
At the urging of major U.S. veteran organizations, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954.
NOTE:
The NC State Memorial Belltower was originally built to pay tribute to those who fell in past conflict, the Belltower has become a symbol of inspiration to the Wolfpack community.
Back home in our country of Australia, 11/11 is Remembrance Day, and at 11am much of the country stops for a minute`s silence.
