The Pamlico Porch Explore beautiful coastal towns and try some shrimp and grits....discover all things southern - travel, food, history, homes, people, and places!

There is something inviting about a big ol' southern porch, wrapped around an old plantation style house with a swing hanging perfectly on the corner. It's a place for summer dinners outside, watching the kids catch fireflies, enjoying a glass of wine with the neighbors. Sitting back and having a cup of coffee while listening to the sound of boats coming across the river.....or the smell of fresh

cut grass by your early bird neighbor that gets his lawnmower out before the chickens are even up. Although I travel often, I have always called North Carolina home. While I appreciate so much about different places in the world, the south will always have a special place in my heart. There is a peace about life at a slower pace, taking a walk on the beach, or a Sunday drive for no reason other than to explore and spend time with the ones you love. I created The Pamlico Porch, with the idea of a big southern porch on the Pamlico Sound in North Carolina, enjoying dear friends and good food - and the happiness it brings me. I want to share my love of North Carolina, the south, all of it's wonderful history, places, and people. The Pamlico Porch will introduce you to people who have made a difference, places that are hidden little treasures, the perfect restaurants and towns, and will bring you back in time to enjoy our rich history and traditions! So if you love your linens monogrammed and the idea of spending a weekend in a historic Bed and Breakfast excites you, you have come to the right place, so pour yourself a glass of iced tea and enjoy The Pamlico Porch!

Do you know where your seafood comes from? For grins and giggles while in the store I checked to see if there was any LOCAL crab meat as an option.... not only could I not find local, I couldn’t find a product of the US.... just because it’s distributed in Maryland doesn’t mean you’re getting Maryland crab. Pay attention to what you buy!
