The Town of Robbins is pleased to announce the launch of a new Incubator Farm Project in partnership with the Center for Environmental Farming systems (CEFS). CEFS is a partnership of N.C. State University, N.C. A&T State University and the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Robbins is one of only a small number of towns to be selected for this partnership. The project is supported by the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, U.S. Department of Agriculture.

“It is an honor for the Town of Robbins to be selected for the incubator farm project. We look forward to working with our partners to help our residents with this new business and career opportunity”, said Mayor Lonnie English when informed of the news.

The incubator farm works much like a business incubator. Individuals interested in starting a business as a farmer can enroll in the program which provides instruction on the business of farming, as well as hands on experience on the farm. Participants in the program develop and manage their own agriculture business while receiving guidance from seasoned farmers.

There will be community meetings held to provide more information on the program and how to apply for it. Dates and times for these meetings will be announced in the near future. For more information please contact Robbins Town Hall at (910) 948-2431.

• About Our Town

Robbins is a rustic town with plenty of authentic character. It's a friendly, down-home place, where people still wave as they pass - even if they don't know you.

Robbins is a great place to do business. A cluster of military based businesses has recently emerged, based on available land, an affordable cost of doing business, quality of life, and an able workforce. Robbins has a great mix of opportunities for industry and retail operations.

Downtown you'll find places that remind you of the way things used to be. Local antique shops, restaurants, and a coffee shop offer places to stop in, slow down, and forget the business of everyday life. You'll find maps there of local pottery shops, historic sites, and places to put in (canoe and kayak launches). Robbins is the only place to get a passport in Moore County and has a line-free DMV too.

So whether it's business or just fun, come back to the way it used to be. Come back to Robbins!

But mostly, Robbins is a town redefining itself. Recently, we’ve become an NC STEP and a Main Street Town. Local citizens have worked hard to organize and bring meaningful change in terms of revitalizing our Town – in terms of improving the quality of life, business development, and job creation.

Robbins also has great natural resources. Bear Creek, Cabin Creek, and Deep River provide great paddling and offer easy access points. We also have scenic hiking trails that are quite different from the surrounding Sandhills region – rolling hills, clay soil and beautiful hardwoods. And dark skies make Robbins ideal for deep space star gazing.

Robbins has a history of artisans and potters that goes back more than five generations. The Pottery Highway (route 705 from Robbins to Seagrove) runs right through the middle of town. Over 100 potters turn of their unique brand of art here.
