Buy Haywood is a project of the Haywood Advancement Foundation (HAF) designed to support Haywood County farmers, locally grown products, farmlands and the preservation of our rich agricultural heritage. 

HAF strives to improve the well-being of the county as a whole, by working to bring together the various public and private groups necessary to promote job creation and economic development.
