Walnut Hollow Farms is a group of five farms in Gaston county, NC, overseen by Dad, brothers and sisters, and my self, Lewis Friday. All five farms were originally owned by our ancestors. When Nicholas Friday first moved here, to start his family, from York, PA in the 1750s Gaston county hadn't yet been established (in 1846) .

About Us
Long-term
With our local farming history dating back 260 years one could say that "our roots run deep". With this deep rooted desire to continue the legacy of our ancestors beyond our own existence. We are taking major steps toward our goal of continuing our agriculture tradition. :
• With easements to thwart overdevelopment and land misuse
• With wetland restoration and wildlife monitoring
• Dispersion of organic, farm produced fertilizer to eliminate our need for synthetic fertilizer
• Rotational graising to reduce fuel use through over-wintering cattle
