Nearly every day at the market, we see an adult reminiscing about visiting Lineberger's Farm as a child on a school field trip. Children throughout Gaston and Lincoln counties in North Carolina love to visit the farm to pick berries or pumpkins, learn about farming, and gain an appreciation for how their food is grown.
