Meet Laura Morgan, General Manager for Construction and Real Estate

What drew you to Fearrington? Well, I needed a job! I was managing the restaurant as well as weddings and events; it was one position then.

How long have you been part of the team? Thirty-seven years. There’s no place like home.

What do you like most about being part of the team here? RB and Jenny were such lovely people—fair, lots of integrity and kind. They did things right. RB is still such a good man to work with – and he has always had a knack for hiring happy people. Most of all, I love the people I work with – they are competent and caring and a pleasure to be with every dayl

What was your most memorable experience? One was the first time I ever had to help get a cow back into the cow pasture! Another was probably my first dinner at the Fearrington House Restaurant with my first paycheck. I took my parents and I ordered sweetbreads, which I had never had. To this day, I still crave sweetbreads.

What are your hobbies and interests outside of work? I walk my dogs and work on my garden, here in Fearrington!
