Support Root Cause Farm by helping with their wishlist.

It takes a community to keep a farm growing. 💚

We recently updated our Root Cause Farm wish list with supplies that help us care for the land, support our programs, and serve the community: everything from landscape fabric to whiteboard markers and everyday farm essentials.

View the farm wish list here: https://loom.ly/pnzBLBc

If you happen to already have gently used versions of any of these items, we’d love to hear from you too.

Every contribution, big or small, helps strengthen what we’re building together here in Fairview. Thank you for continuing to show up for this farm and this community. 🌱

Opening with Fairview's David Holt on Sunday!

This Sunday, folks! The opening reception for our exhibit of David Holt's photography and paintings.

David will also have autographed prints of many of his photographs available for purchase. You can also sign up to be notified when David's upcoming book is published. There is now a fabulous foreword by former NC Governor Roy Cooper that captures the very essence of the book.

It's going to be a great show. A number of David's instruments are going to be on display, including THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BANJO I've ever seen in my life. No kidding.

My favorite, though, may be the washboard, displayed along with his painting titled "Learning from the Oldest Woman in the World". Bessie was 121 years young in the painting, teaching David how to play by clapping along with him.

You don't want to miss this! 1-5 p.m., Sunday, May 31, at Re.Imagine Gallery, 15 Spivey Lake Rd., Fairview, NC.
