Peacehaven Farm broke ground to expand facilities
What's to know about this special organization's development?
Over on EDNC, Alli Lindenberg published an article 27 October 2025 about plans for expanding the facilities at Peacehaven Farm in North Carolina. In “Peacehaven Farm breaks ground on historic expansion to serve hundreds more people with disabilities,” Ms. Lindeberg described the scene at the facility’s ground-breaking ceremony held 19 October 2025. Here’s her lede:
Wind and rain were barely noticeable at Peacehaven Farm’s harvest celebration and community center groundbreaking event on Oct. 19. There was too much excitement in the air to pay the weather any mind as families gathered to commemorate a milestone of the organization’s historic expansion.
Peacehaven brings people of all abilities together and provides services for adults with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD). In the next few years, Peacehaven’s 89 acres of farmland will undergo a physical transformation with the addition of a multipurpose community center, residential housing, and more, thanks to a successful multimillion dollar fundraising campaign.
Peacehaven Farm is a private, not-for-profit residential facility that supports people with (and without disabilities} in daily living, employment, and community engagement. It is located east of Greensboro, NC. As Ms. Lindenberg reported, the facility is expanding its physical facilities.
