Southern Food Traditions

About

Take an outdoors walking tour to discover the roots of many iconic Southern culinary traditions. Historically, Belle Meade had a rich history of entertaining large crowds of guests from across the country. Supported by a two-story Smoke House, a stream-powered Dairy, and expansive fruit trees and gardens, Belle Meade’s culinary traditions were firmly planted in the cultural diversities of the South. This is the tour where culture and agriculture meet! Food samples included.
