Our Story

For three generations, the Woodard family has put their hand and heart

into the fertile soil of Darlington, South Carolina.

A passion to steward the land and its fruits began with Frank Woodard, Jr. as he purchased the first plot of farmland nestled within the sprawling rural landscape of Darlington County in 1962. He passed the dream and determination to sow and reap not only crops, but a legacy of stewardship and family to his sons and grandsons. Over the decades, Woodard Farms has grown in every sense, but still reaps a harvest from that very plot of land where it all began.

Covered in Cotton was sown from that same seed planted five decades ago - the dream to cultivate something lasting and a harvest that impacts families beyond our fields. With a vision to create a product from their locally grown upland cotton, Ty and his wife, Tracy, spent years dreaming of a way to share not just their story, but the story of agriculture. And after an actual dream in December 2017, Covered in Cotton was born with a mission to cultivate.

Family and farm are woven together at the center of Covered in Cotton as we've worked closely with all local family-owned businesses right in our backyard of the Carolinas. Our commitment is to invest in American families and businesses - with a promise to remain proudly made in the USA.
