Raleigh City Farm We're a nonprofit urban farm connecting and nourishing our community through regenerative agriculture

Raleigh City Farm is a nonprofit urban farm founded in 2011 on a formerly vacant one-acre lot in downtown Raleigh. We believe in the power of urban farms to create healthier communities and reconnect city dwellers with healthy food production through more frequent encounters with agriculture. We believe that turning vacant lots into productive, nourishing farmland can create something from nothing – an amenity from an eyesore. We invite our community to “dig in” and advance our mission by signing up for a workshop, taking a tour, attending a special event, and volunteering to help maintain our farm site.

It was a weekend well spent learning, connecting, and growing as our team headed to Winston-Salem for the annual Sustainable Agriculture Conference hosted by Carolina Farm Stewardship Association (CFSA) 🌱💚

There's something special about being surrounded by fellow farmers, educators, advocates, and community members who care so deeply about the future of local food and sustainable agriculture.

A big thank you to the CFSA for bringing everyone together and for all you do year-round to support farmers and strengthen our local food systems. We're grateful to be part of this community💚��

Our high tunnel improvements are complete and fall crops including bok choy, cabbage, kale and Swiss chard are thriving! 🥬

Thanks to a generous grant from The Jandy Ammons Foundation, we purchased roll-up sides, wind panels, metal baseboards, polyfilm roof plastic, poly carb end walls and an insect screen from Rimol Greenhouse with dedicated support from Brian Hannon.

This important structure allows us to extend our growing season during colder months by protecting the crops from frost, wind, and harsh weather while trapping the sun's warmth.

All of our produce will be donated to our nonprofit Farmshare partners through mid-April when we reopen our Pay-What-You-Can Farmstand.

Happy ! 💚☀️

Harvest Dinner 2026 ✔️💚

Thanks to our incredible community, this year’s Harvest Dinner raised $70,000 in net proceeds to support the people, programs, and everyday operations that keep Raleigh City Farm growing 🌱

From our original location on Blount Street to our growing second location at Marsh Creek Park, your generosity is helping us cultivate the next chapter of Raleigh City Farm.

Countless hands, hearts, and moving parts went into making this special evening happen (rain date and all!).

To our sponsors, partners, volunteers, donors, guests, and every Farm Friend who made it possible: thank you!! 💚

Harvest Dinner 2026 was ✨ pure magic ✨

Another memorable evening under the stars, celebrating the people, plants, and community that make Raleigh City Farm what it is 💚

This year's celebration came with a little extra planning, preparation, and flexibility as we navigated our rain date reschedule. But thanks to the incredible hands, hearts, and minds behind this event, everything came together beautifully!

BIG FARM THANKS to our restaurant partner Brewery Bhavana for delicious food, b**r and abundant generosity.

THANK YOU to our generous sponsors, community partners, auction donors and bidders, volunteers, staff, board, advisory council, and every guest who joined us for this special evening.

Everyone’s support helps us continue growing, sharing, and creating meaningful connections through the Farm.

And we had so many helping hands capturing the magic of the evening so don't be surprised if there are more photo dumps this week 😏
