Four Farms Place is a mother/daughter-led, women-owned and operated business.

Becca Crutchfield is the Founder, creative mastermind, powerhouse and land steward of Four Farms Place. She and her late husband, Jack, were married on this land in 1990. Jack Crutchfield bought the Garden House in the 1980’s. The Lake House became part of the family in 2021, adopted from our long time neighbors when they decided to sell.

Sydney Crutchfield is the Communications and Marketing Director at Four Farms Place. You’ll find her behind our website, social media channels, emails and event production as well as wearing miscellaneous other hats as needed.

Originally from Massachusetts, Becca has lived in Greensboro since attending grad school at UNCG. She is a retired AAC Speech Therapist, entrepreneur, inventor, wood worker, avid gardener and children’s book writer. She also co-founded Camp REACH, a summer camp for children and young adults who use augmentative communication. Becca enjoys being outside, tending the land, growing food and getting creative in the kitchen for her family and guests.

Born and raised in Greensboro, Sydney attended Dickinson College in Pennsylvania before moving to Europe for several years. She returned to NC in 2018 and began to support Four Farms Place professionally. She continues to travel as the opportunity presents and has a deep love and curiosity for wild places, language and cultural difference. Sydney is a poet, writer, artist and author. Her debut poetry collection, Golden Threads, was published in 2024. She enjoys hiking, camping and exploring new corners of the world. She connects deeply to nature, and believes in creative and honest expression as a form of vital medicine.

Juneau (dog) and Chutney (cat) are also part of the FFP family, and you will no doubt meet them when visiting the Garden House.
