A stack of big, fluffy pancakes is the perfect way to start your morning. But here in the Mountain State, we don’t just do any regular ol’ pancakes. No, they are either piled high, topped with crazy ingredients or even made with a different kind of flour. Read on to discover our favorite takes on this breakfast specialty:

Preston County Buckwheat Festival
In September, head to the Preston County Buckwheat Festival for all things buckwheat. During the Great Depression, buckwheat was grown in rural West Virginia and Preston County as an insurance crop because it has a short growing season and is of good quality. While at the festival, it’s a must that you try the delicious buckwheat cakes! But there will also be various artisans there, a carnival, arts and crafts, live entertainment and even a buckwheat cake eating contest. Mark your calendars!
