Colonial Pipeline: As experts tell consumers not to panic, overbuying spurs gas shortages

Colonial Pipeline: As experts tell consumers not to panic, overbuying spurs gas shortages ASHEVILLE - After the operator of one of the nation s largest fuel pipelines endured a ransomware attack May 7, people are rushing to snap up gas over fear of an impending shortage.  Over the weekend, the Colonial Pipeline as a precaution shut down its pipeline, which runs from Texas to New York Harbor.

Wings, like pizza, also travel well for takeout, Stokes said.

ASHEVILLE - The pandemic upended months of business planning and decimated restaurant sales for local farmers. That s part of the message from a recent report from The Local Food Research Center, a program of the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project, which annually surveys farms in Western North Carolina and some surrounding counties. The other part of the message: resilience. In what should come as a surprise to virtually no one, this year s survey was heavily influenced by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on local farms.  Of the 208 regional farmers who took part in the survey, 52% said they had access to fewer local market outlets for their products last year, a 41% increase over the previous year. That number is influenced by closed markets, delayed openings and limits on the number of vendors
