Why Visit Davidson County Farms?
Davidson County, nestled right here in the heart of the Piedmont, has a rich agricultural history — and it’s still going strong today. Home to over 1,000 farms covering more than 90,000 acres, this community produces everything from fresh vegetables and grains to cattle, poultry, and even greenhouse plants. Fun fact: 66% of the county’s agricultural sales come from livestock and poultry, making it one of the top players in North Carolina’s farming scene!
And while farming isn't without its challenges — like development pressures, aging farmers, and unpredictable weather — the spirit of Davidson County agriculture remains strong. Many farms here are small and family-owned, with generations working together to adapt, innovate, and keep the land thriving. What to Expect on the Farm Tour
The Farm Tour gives visitors a rare behind-the-scenes peek at local farms. You'll meet farmers, see animals, and learn how food gets from the farm to your table. Depending on which stops you choose, you might experience:
It’s not just fun — it’s a great way to support our hardworking local farmers, many of whom balance farming with full-time jobs, just to keep their family traditions alive. Plus, you’ll gain a whole new appreciation for the dedication it takes to raise crops and animals, especially in a world where farming faces more challenges than ever. Why Your $5 Matters
That small $5/car fee helps cover costs and supports the Davidson County Local Food Network’s mission to connect our community with local food producers. It also means you can enjoy multiple farms in one day without worrying about additional admission charges at each stop.
Think about it: for less than the price of a fancy coffee, your entire family can spend the day surrounded by wide-open fields, friendly farm animals, and real stories of resilience and tradition. Final Tips for a Great Day on the Farm
Whether you’ve lived in the Piedmont all your life or you're new to the area, the Davidson County Farm Tour 2025 is a heartwarming reminder of the deep roots and bright future of our local agriculture.
Mark your calendars and join us for a day full of fresh air, learning, and lasting memories!
