Nc Center For Poultry Education

NCCPE uses this real-world farm environment to educate students, educators, industry partners, and the public about food production and the essential role of commercial agriculture. Production tours are available by request only. For the health, safety, and welfare of the animals, no one is allowed inside poultry houses or animal areas unless supervised by farm staff. These practices are critical to maintaining proper biosecurity and animal health. Honey Bee Operation In addition to poultry production, the farm maintains a managed honey bee operation that supports pollination, environmental stewardship, and agricultural education. Guests may observe hives from a safe distance. Direct hive access is limited and available only when appropriate for safety and animal welfare. RV Accommodations We are in the process of expanding our RV accommodations. At this time, we offer: two full-hookup RV sites (water, electric, sewer), expected to be available by March 15th, 2026 Multiple boondocking sites for self-contained RVs Additional full-hookup sites are planned and under development; however, only two full-hookup sites will be available by March 15th, 2026. Boondocking options are currently available and welcomed.
