Robert Wells attended the Sustainable Agriculture Program at CCCC for three semesters from 2017-2018. It was my family’s dream to homestead after my retirement from the Army in 2016. That year we purchased our 43 acres in Stokes County north of Winston Salem. However, I had no idea how to grow food sustainably and I had two and a half years to kill until our two oldest graduated HS and we could move. I stumbled on CCCCs Sustainable Ag program online. I quit my job on December 31st 2016 and began at CCCC on January 5th I believe. It was the absolute best decision I could have made. I truly enjoyed the program, the instructors, and learning to provide for my family. Definitely a highlight of my life. I felt like a kid again with all of the fun field trips we took.
