Murphy Family Farms Partnership Social
A night to remember! 🌟 Murphy Family Farms was honored to host our new farm owner partners at a special dinner featuring a good old-fashioned pig-pickin'. The evening was filled with great food, warm welcomes, and new beginnings. Guests had the chance to visit with the President & CEO of Murphy Family Ventures, Dell Murphy, his family, and the incredible MFV support team. As Mr. Murphy shared, “With all of us working together I know we will do great things and be successful in the future."
MFV High School Career Fair
We had an awesome time connecting with students at our annual Murphy Family Ventures Career Fair, hosted at @madboarrestaurant! 🎉 Huge shoutout to our amazing recruiter, Megan Jensen, for organizing the event and kicking things off, and to Vice President and Director of Support Operations Wen Murphy for the warm welcome. Students had the chance to explore nine interactive booths and speak directly with our incredible team members from various departments—learning firsthand about the careers MFV has to offer. We were also excited to have James Sprunt Community College join us to share valuable info about community college opportunities. We’re so grateful to everyone who helped make this event happen and to all the students who participated. We’re already looking forward to making next year even better! 🙌
Celebrating 20 Years
Celebrating 20 years of excellence with a special message from our President and CEO Dell Murphy! Our journey wouldn’t be possible without the dedication, passion, and hard work of our incredible employees at Murphy Family Ventures. Thank you for being the driving force behind our success! Here’s to the next 20 years!
From a small farm in Rose Hill, NC, the Murphy family's entrepreneurial spirit took root and flourished. Wendell and Holmes Murphy's vision not only revolutionized agribusiness but also uplifted local farmers. Today, as Murphy Family Ventures celebrates 20 years, we honor our roots, our hard work, and the community that has grown with us.
There’s something powerful about an old photo.
“More than a legacy—it’s family.”
Regan Murphy Boyd, daughter of Dell and Wendy Murphy, reflects on 20 years of MFV:
"I looked up to my dad back then—and even though I’m taller now, I look up to him even more today. A lot has changed over the years, but one thing that’s stayed the same is this: hard work and family come first. Always have. Always will. The future is bright for MFV, and I’m honored to be a part of it. Happy 20 years—and here’s to many more!"

She has been the supervisor of farrowing for 15 years and she has helped develop many people in the farrowing department. She contributes her knowledge to the employees.

Carlos Chirinos | 25 Years
Congratulations to Carlos Chirinos from River Landing Golf Course Maintenance on 25 years with MFV! Golf Superintendent Chris (Peter) Futral said, "When Carlos came to River Landing he was as green as they come. Over the years he has evolved into one of the best employees I have ever had the privilege to work with. He’s been with me through storms, hurricanes, floods, tournaments, employees that came and went, 13-hour days watering bent grass greens (back in the old days), renovations, countless projects, and so much more. Carlos interprets for me to the guys who can’t speak English, trains new employees, and is the lead on most jobs or projects that we do. He is the hardest-working man that I have ever seen and makes my job a lot easier. I’ve told him that he can’t quit RL until I do! This little quip can not come near describing his work ethic and the respect that I have for him. Really, he is the best employee I have ever had. Cheers to twenty years Carlos. I hope we have many more years together." Pictured with Carlos is the Director of Golf Maintenance Chris Humphrey, Tommy Mott, Peter Futral, and the Director of Hospitality and Club Operations Larry George

She is a pleasure to work with and genuinely cares about her co-workers. Gloria’s calm demeanor makes her fantastic with the property owners and club members, particularly when she must have those “challenging” conversations with past-due owners and members!
