Send us a text

Ever thought about leaving the corporate world behind for a life in the country? Mary Fleming Sandy, owner of Kings Landing Farm in Rock Hill, South Carolina, did exactly that, trading in her corporate career to run a Game of Thrones-themed farm. Join us as we explore her journey from navigating livestock auctions to implementing a Rent-A-Chick program.

Mary's story will give you a glimpse into the realities of running a farm, from the joys of early morning summer wake-ups to the challenges of maintaining small farms in a country that’s witnessing a decline in their numbers. She also enlightens us about her upcoming festival, Winter is Coming to the Farm, complete with a barbarian feast and artisan vendors. You'll gain a new appreciation for the daily life of a farmer and come away with an understanding of the intricate balance of work and passion that running a farm demands.

This is not just about farming, but about following your heart and embracing change, even in midlife. As Mary transitions her farm into a destination spot, she shares her experience of downsizing, accepting help and creating more time for family. Her story serves as a beacon to other women contemplating a significant lifestyle or career change. So, tune in to hear how Mary followed her passion, turned it into her life's work, and encourages others to do the same.
