But take "the road less traveled," as poet Robert Frost suggested, and you'll uncover trend-setting food suppliers that make the area a locavore's delight. Fresh, locally-produced foods are abundant in the Lakes Region. Join the movement and explore these four locavore destinations around Lake Winnipesaukee.

Beans & Greens Farm, Gilford, NH

Beans & Greens is an all-inclusive farm-to-table venue. Its garden center offers a rotating crop of delicious, non-GMO vegetables, and the on-site bakery serves everything from seasonal pies to homemade breads. Special attractions at Beans & Greens include farm dinners, a corn maze, harvest festival, pig roast, and several fields where you can pick your own fruit.

Moulton Farm, Meredith, NH

Moulton Farm takes the locovore experience to the next level. Its farm kitchen offers "field-to-fork" brunch buffets and dinners in a rustic, al fresco setting. Seating is first come, first served. But don't worry—if you get there late, you can order a farm meal to go. Fresh seafood—straight off the fishing boats at Boston's pier—is available Thursday through Saturday. 18 Quarry Road, Meredith

The Sandwich Creamery, North Sandwich, NH 

Is there anything better than cheese and ice cream made fresh on the farm? Following a time-honored tradition, The Sandwich Creamery makes cheese by hand in small batches.
