In 2024, Durham County purchased 129-acres for a Durham County Farm Campus. The property at 308 Orange Factory Rd. in North Durham includes large tracts of farm fields, four ponds, and a forest, and is being developed for a farming education space as well as for outdoor recreation opportunities. The engagement process includes conversations about the features of Farm Campus-the incubator farm, post-harvest food education facility, value added production facility, and a healing garden.
