Full time diverse Christian farm operating three market gardens
Building fencing for pigs and rotating them to new sections is constant. Plus feeding daily! We work in our three market gardens more frequently than anywhere else. Long, hard, beautiful days

Located half an hour outside of Charlotte. We are a cooperative farm with several farmers and farm businesses on one property - two flower farmers, a pork farmer, beekeepers, the list goes on. It’s a beautiful place, and everyone gets along exceptionally well. Activities typically include feeding animals, moving chickens and sheep to fresh pasture, planting, light weeding, mulching, harvesting produce, and beautiful time as a farm team. Other less frequent tasks include building animal housing/fencing/other structures, occasional processing days for chickens, etc. We are passionate about our local relationships and strive to steward the land like God intended. We enjoy spending time outdoors - there are a couple of lakes nearby for boating, a river for kayaking/floating, and lots of restaurants/city things to do. We are an equal distance from the mountains and the beach and frequently take weekend trips to enjoy them. We hope to welcome wwoofers who want to tag along, especially for local outings, from time to time. We eat locally grown foods communally as a family unit several times a week but will supply ingredients, produce, and grocery items for breakfasts, lunches, and any nighttime meals you cook solo. We have a big freezer and storage room full of local food and just ask that you’re respectful with how much you take and how often. Housing is first come first served - There are many housing options here, but availability depends on your requested dates. There’s a private cabin with plug in kitchen devices, there’s a full Airstream with a queen bed, a large upstairs apartment, several rooms in back hallways of the farm house, etc. We’re introverts and find rest in quiet and try to make all of the housing as introvert friendly as possible. All of the lodging is ours and is very nice, so we ask that wwoofers are clean and treat it with care so we can keep doing this forever! !!! Wwoofers who plan to stay for 3+ months are given priority. We ask for 1 month+ but occasionally accept Wwoofers for shorter periods when persuaded or extra busy on the farm :) Our gardens are strictly no-spray, no-till. Our meat chickens are fed organic feed and rotated to fresh pasture daily. Sheep are grass fed. Our pigs when we have them are usually forest raised but are sometimes on pasture if we need a new area cleared. Their feed is not always organic but is always locally milled. We will be getting a dairy cow early 2026 who will be grass fed. Must be good with spending time with kids daily. Myself and one of our flower farmers have young toddlers that hang around the farm often. We love Jesus for real, for real. Wwoofers must be okay with occasional shooting noise, as there’s a range here. For those who are newer to growing vegetables and gardening, I love to offer my full Gardening 101 course free of charge during your visit to send you home with really valuable information!

My partner and I stayed at Kingdom Gardens for four months and even extended our stay because we enjoyed it so much. The farm includes a wide variety of animals and growing projects, and we felt truly immersed in day-to-day homestead life. Daily tasks varied depending on the needs of the farm and the season. Work included feeding and caring for sheep, laying hens, meat chickens, and rabbits, as well as harvesting produce, weeding, planting, and seedling care. During our stay, we helped with a lamb birth, harvested meat chickens that helped feed us, assisted with building projects and repairs, planted seedlings, learned the basics of growing mushrooms and flowers, and preserved food by canning vegetables. There was always something new to learn, and the experience felt very well-rounded. WWOOFers who are self-directed and comfortable learning through hands-on experience tend to thrive here. Much of the learning happens by doing and observing, and volunteers who enjoy taking initiative, sharing ideas, and asking questions will feel at home. Flexibility is a part of the rhythm here, which made it possible for me to work remotely part-time and adjust hours between days as needed. Weekend responsibilities were limited to animal care, which usually took about an hour at most. This is a truly special place with community-minded people and generous hearts. We highly recommend this host to WWOOFers looking for a meaningful, hands-on farm experience. Thank you, Hannah and Liam!

Our experience here was amazing! It was just the right fit for us. Hannah is knowledgeable, patient, gracious, and a great teacher. She gave us a ton of freedom to take initiative with the chickens and sheep. She was there to guide, but also let us fail so we could learn on our own. She is a great land steward/manager, very passionate about what she does. She is wonderful to work and collaborate with. I would recommend this farm to WWOOFers who are eager to learn and take initiative while also being a team player.

As one of WWOOF USA's 2025 Future Farmers, I selected this remarkable farm for my fellowship- it exceeded every expectation. The experience I gained working alongside Hannah and her incredible co-op of farmers was nothing short of transformative. I delved into the art of flower cultivation—learning the nuances of cutting and pricing—and acquired essential skills in animal husbandry. Two highlights from my time here stand out: crafting a chicken tractor from bamboo harvested directly from the farm and the profound experience of raising, dispatching, and processing my own meat chicken. With the unwavering support of Hannah and her husband Liam, I felt empowered and encouraged as a novice farmer, truly believing I was on my way to becoming the best first-timer imaginable! Hannah, a first-generation farmer, radiates warmth and patience, creating a welcoming atmosphere that made every moment enjoyable. The care and nourishment she provided during my stay fostered a sense of belonging that is rare to find. This farm, along with its vibrant community and co-op members, embodies the essence of friendship, family, and collective spirit. As an autistic older woman of color, I felt a profound sense of safety and acceptance here—I was free to be myself while passionately engaging in what I love. This farm, with its exceptional leadership and inclusive environment, is a true gem in the world of sustainable agriculture. Come and experience the beauty of community farming at its best!

Hannah, Abby, Evan and Roy were incredible. Hannah is so warm and welcoming. She helped us settle through our first WWOOFING experience. The team she has on farm is the best group of people ever. Thank you for a wonderful experience

This was my first WWOOF experience and it was fantastic! Hannah’s farm is in such a beautiful spot and she helped me get right in and feel comfortable. I had a lot of questions and she was very informative and eager to share as well. Over all a great experience!!
