FarmingWell
Preserving and Celebrating Carolina Farms, Food & Families
FarmingWell is an innovative domestic venture designed by KnowledgeWell (US501c3), dedicated to preserving and celebrating Carolina farms, food, and families. Our mission focuses on sustainability, community support, and cultural diversity.
Our Vision and Impact
Since 2020, FarmingWell has been addressing food security issues and social needs, particularly in
response to pandemic-related challenges. Our initiatives include:
- Providing experiential learning opportunities for university students
- Welcoming refugee families in our home state
- Designing a sustainable venue from repurposed materials
- Offering agri-tourism experiences
About
FarmingWell brings together racially and ethnically diverse communities, fostering friendship through agriculture. Our roots trace back to the deep and enduring historical friendship between the Evans and Holleman families, which began in 1695 in Virginia. This bond has withstood the test of time and continued to flourish, extending into North Carolina since 1805. Over the centuries, our families have cultivated the land and a rich heritage of collaboration and mutual support. During the pandemic, FarmingWell volunteers delivered local farm food to widows, eldercare facilities, and refugee families to address food security needs as part of our mission to preserve and celebrate local farms, food, and family.
Our Sustainable Approach
The heart of FarmingWell’s sustainability is our first designed site:
- A new building crafted from landfill-bound materials
- Incorporates historic elements from three counties, dating back to 1840
- Serves as a beacon of hope for under-served communities
- Membership Opportunities
