OUR MISSION

Sandhills MADE is a collaborative of makers, agriculturalists, designers and entrepreneurs in central and south eastern North Carolina. Our mission is three-fold: to connect these innovative, creative and dedicated small business owners with each other and their customer bases; to provide opportunities for them to sell their goods and promote their ventures; and to encourage residents and visitors to the Sandhills to #shoplocal.

SOME OF OUR INCREDIBLY TALENTED COOPERATIVE MEMBERS INCLUDE …
• sustainable meat and dairy farmers
• fresh produce farmers
• canners
• bakers
• soap makers
• jewelry designers
• apothecaries
• woodworkers
• fine artists

• restaurateurs and craft brewers
• crafters
• authors
and many, many more!

YEAH, WE’RE PRETTY SPECIAL …

SANDHILLS MADE is particularly special because of our people – the small business owners who are the cornerstones of our local economy.

We are especially fortunate to have many unique residents among these amazing entrepreneurs who contribute to a diverse and exciting cooperative including youth business owners (under 18 years of age), military veterans, retirees, women and people of color.
