The Made in NC Association (MINCA) has a simple yet powerful mission: to champion the diverse talents, craftsmanship, and ingenuity of North Carolina’s farmers, artists, and creators.

We are dedicated to promoting locally-made products through festivals, farmers markets, conventions, farm stands and country stores, providing our members with unparalleled opportunities for growth and recognition.

As a cooperative membership organization, we believe in the strength of unity and collaboration. By coming together, we amplify our collective impact, creating a thriving support network where farmers, artists, creators and producers can flourish without the burdens of solo entrepreneurship.

Our shared commitment to excellence, community, and sustainability drives everything we do.

At MINCA, we are more than just an association – we are a passionate community united by our love for North Carolina and its rich heritage. Through our unwavering support, guidance, and camaraderie, we empower our members to reach new heights of success while celebrating the unique spirit of our beloved state.

Join us on this journey, where together, we elevate local craftsmanship, foster economic growth, and showcase the true essence of ‘Made in NC.’ Because when we stand united, our possibilities are limitless.”
