Cafe for the past several years and it is one of the most impactful visits on our journey. To see the inclusive and supportive atmosphere Renee and her team have created, where people from all walks of life and circumstances can enjoy a meal and conversation together, is nothing short of inspiring. Those conversations have been catalysts to help people keep moving in a positive direction with their lives. Boone is a caring community and what you experience at F.A.R.M. Cafe everyday is among the very best examples of that positive outreach. We are proud to have our opportunity to Buy Boone Lunch and invite our members and local business communities to come enjoy a delicious meal and thank the F.A.R.M.
