Spruill Conservation Farm

Spruill Conservation Farm Welcome to the Spruill Conservation Farm. Our mission is education, research, and access. The Albemarle is the largest freshwater sound in the world.

The farm has 110 acres, 75 of which are in cultivation, and 1,600 feet of undeveloped shoreline on the sound. The

farm is located at:
