Working Landscapes is a nonprofit rural development organization based in Warren County, NC. We are working to advance the economic and environmental resilience of our region.  Learn more about our mission and vision>

In order to grow the economy and improve health in northeastern North Carolina, we work with partners to build a food system that connects local farmers to local consumers. We have developed a unique food processing hub in downtown Warrenton.

Are you a food service professional?  We offer a line of premium quality, fresh-cut local greens for your cafeteria.  Learn more>

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many in our community have been struggling to make ends meet.  Working Landscapes has responded by devoting our food hub’s resources to helping meet our community’s food needs.  Our food assistance programs have included:
