    Sampson County: The Heart of North Carolina Agriculture

    Sampson County stands as North Carolina's largest county by land area, encompassing 945 square miles of fertile coastal plain terrain. Established in 1784 and named after Colonel John Sampson, a Revolutionary War hero and member of the Colonial Assembly, this county has evolved into one of the state's most productive agricultural regions. The county seat, Clinton, serves as the hub for commerce and community life in this predominantly rural area.

    The landscape of Sampson County is characterized by rich, sandy loam soils that support diverse agricultural operations. From vast turkey and hog farms to fields of sweet potatoes, tobacco, and cotton, the county's agricultural output consistently ranks among the highest in North Carolina. The Black River and its tributaries wind through the county, creating valuable wetland ecosystems and supporting recreational fishing opportunities.
