Real Life Center Orchard

Spanning three acres, the Real Life Center Orchard produces a variety of fruits—from apples to muscadine grapes—providing fresh harvests to families in need. Powered by volunteers, the orchard reflects Mark 12:31 in action, serving others through care, stewardship, and community. In 2024 alone, 3,600+ volunteer hours yielded over 16,000 pounds of fruit. This space is more than an orchard—it’s a living testament to faith, generosity, and God’s provision.

The Real Life Center Orchard thrives thanks to 9 dedicated teams: Apple, Blackberry, Blueberry, Fig, Maintenance, Mow, Muscadine (Grape), Peach, and Spray Teams. Each team has a leader who trains volunteers to complete specific tasks on scheduled monthly workdays.  Currently, the workdays are on the 2nd Saturday of the month from 8:30 to 10:30 am (weather permitting).
