Wells Branch Farm

Dont Forget: Saxapahaw Oktoberfest this Saturday, Oct 18th

Come on out to the 2008 Saxapahaw Oktoberfest. We'll be there!

 

Our Farms featured in the current October edition of Bon Appetit

Check out this months edition of Bon Appetit Magazine, for a great article on Durham/Chapel Hill's local food scene...including the two farms that currently make up Wells Branch Farms: Braeburn Farm and Cane Creek Farm. 

America's Foodiest Small Town (Oct 2008 Bon Apppetit Mag)
Imagine a place where foodies not only have a favorite chef, but also a favorite farmer; a place where the distance between the organic farm and the award-winning restaurant is mere miles; a place where a sustainable future is foreseeable. It's all a reality in Durham-Chapel Hill.

Wells Branch serves up tasty lunch and timely information at the 2008 Piedmont Green Gala

If you attended the 1st annual Piedmont Green Gala on Oct. 4th, chances are you got to sample one of Charles Sydnors famous burgers or Eliza MacLean's 'Frankly Eliza' hot dogs. Wells Branch was a proud sponsor of the Piedmont Green Gala, providing a mouth watering lunch of grilled hamburgers (technically ground beef, not hamburger) and hot dogs served up on fresh locally made buns provided by Ninth St Bakery of Durham.

Charlie Sydnor also co-hosted a talk on Sustainable Agriculture, where he discussed the benefits and challenges of creating a healthy local food economy. 

 

After the formal discussion, Charlie Sydnor and Eliza MacLean (below) chatted with local residents of Alamance County answering questions about Wells Branch Farms, local agriculture, food safety, food ethics, animal welfare, etc.

 

Thanks to to 300+ people who made this event a huge success. We hope you see you there next year!
