Abstract:

Parker Family Farms in Orange County is run by Renee and Randall Parker and their four children. As fewer family farms continue to operate in North Carolina, the Parkers hope to save their farm and their agricultural heritage. Several local farming programs have helped the family continue to grow tobacco and raise pigs and chickens.
