Farm Health Connector

Farm Health Connectors in Anson, Duplin, Pitt, Robeson, and Wilkes Counties are trusted members of the agriculture community that work to assist farmers, farm families, and farm workers. Connectors work to address physical, social, and spiritual issues (e.g., medical supplies/equipment, food, utilities, transportation, caregiving, etc.) that cause stress by connecting those in need with community resources.

If you know a farmer or farm family that would benefit from the support and services of a Farm Health Connector, please contact the NC Farm Helpline at 844.325.3276 or CareNet Counseling at 336.716.0855.


Farmer to Farmer

Stress, anxiety or loneliness got you down? Need to talk to someone confidentially who’s non-judgmental & understands the struggles of farming and ranching?

Farmer to Farmer provides peer support for farmers, ranchers and their family members experiencing difficult times. Specially trained peer supporters are farmers, ranchers, family members and others working in agriculture.

To request a peer farmer for yourself or others, or to learn about volunteer opportunities, please call 844-325-3276 or email info@ncfarmstress.org.
