Project Summary

Kellam-Wyatt Farm is the newest facility in the Wake County parks and preserve system. This three-generation family farm and woodland sanctuary has much to offer in natural beauty, wildlife habitat, and sustainable, educational agriculture. The 59-acre property is located in east-central Wake County, near the border between Raleigh and Knightdale. The property was donated to Wake County with a conservation easement, which means the land is legally limited to certain uses that support conservation values. The master plan has been completed and was approved by the Board of Commissioners on December 6, 2021. The plan includes community and demonstration gardens, trails, open space, a community orchard, a play area and pond overlooks.

Additional information about the project is available on the Wake County Parks, Recreation & Open Space website
