We are SO proud of Porter Farms and the Porter family for being named one of three finalists in North Carolina A&T / Cooperativr Extension's Small Farmer of the Year award. The Porters really represent the future of the small farm. Each one of them works hard to raise and sell their produce according to Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) guidelines. Not only do Steven and Jamie raise beautiful produce, they also raise beautiful, well-adjusted children....Haywood, Olivia and Maddie. Congratulations to all five members of the Porter family on this well-deserved award.
