Welcome to LYNCH CREEK FARM

Hold a Business Meeting at our Cabin. We have a unique place to meet with ample parking and all the technological amenities you need to stay connected and communicate your ideas. Indoors, we can comfortably handle up to twenty people. Call us to make an appointment and see for yourself. Discuss with us how we can make your event both effective and memorable.

Plan an Outdoor Event on our Picnic Grounds. Listen to our stream while relaxing on our terraced landscape that can easily handle 100+ people. We have all the amenities you will need including a wood-fired oven, large gas grill, traditional fireplace (with Santa Maria style grill insert), refrigeration and more. Come see for yourself.

Dine with us. Join the Ben Franklin Society of Franklin County and participate in Franklin BreadWorks Private Dining Events at Lynch Creek Farm. For complete details, subscribe below to our BreadWorks Newsletter. Informal-Friday evening and Upscale-Saturday evening dining experiences to choose from. A portion of all proceeds benefit the Ben Franklin Society (Franklin County, NC).

Buy from our Farm Stand. Our on-farm Market is now coordinated to be open for all Franklin BreadWorks dining Events. We will have Artisan Breads, Raw Honey, Brown Eggs, and assorted Fresh Produce for purchase in-season.

Design a Farmstay Weekend. Let us plan a weekend of farm activities tailored to your interests. Stay-over in our Cabin. Work with us and learn some real farm skills. Eat down-home meals we prepare together. You can Tour our year-round greenhouses; See beautiful cut flowers, potted herbs and bulbs; Hike along Lynch Creek; Learn how we raise natural grass-fed beef, barnyard chickens, keep honey bees, grow healthy vegetables and make vinegars; Catch a glimpse of wild deer, turkey, fox and hawks; and lots more.

Tour our Agritourism Site. There's something fun and educational to do with your entire family - especially the children. You'll be pleasantly surprised as you explore our park-like - 55 acre farm - that is entirely in Conservation Easement with the Tar River Land Conservancy. We're just a 45-minute drive, northeast of Raleigh (see Location Map and Driving Directions below) in Rocky Ford, NC.  We have recently been featured in Diane Daniel's travel guidebook "Farm Fresh North Carolina" and also the NC Department of Cultural Resources guidebook "Homegrown Handmade - Art Roads and Farm Trails". Please call and let us know you are planning to visit though - that's just country etiquette.

Our new Outdoor Wood-fired Oven is fully operational (see first Tomato Pie photo above). After nearly three years since the planning and initial construction was initiated, the focal point of our Outdoor Picnic/Dining Area near our Log Cabin is finally completed and permits us to start-up our new Artisan Micro-Bakery and The Franklin BreadWorks.
