Clairemont client Wendell Falls is a master-planned community in Wendell, North Carolina. Wendell Falls is home to Mike Carty and where his coffee business, Workbench Roasters, was born.

In 2020, Mike Carty was “in search of the ultimate coffee” and in need of a new hobby. He started experimenting with roasting his own coffee beans and soon began driving around Wendell Falls in his golf cart, delivering coffee to friends and neighbors. When his neighbors kept asking for more, he decided to start Workbench Roasters.

Clairemont recently secured coverage for Wendell Falls and Workbench Roasters in Neighborhood News. In the December issue, Mike shares the story of how Workbench Roasters came to be, the process of sourcing and roasting the perfect coffee bean and what he loves about Wendell Falls.

This is one of our favorite parts of our work — the chance to celebrate our clients, their partners and the incredible impact they’re making in our community!

Newland’s Robert B. McLeod Partners in Placemaking Award

National real estate developer and Clairemont client Newland recently introduced its Robert B. McLeod Partners in Placemaking Award. Named after Newland’s founder, the Robert B. McLeod Partners in Placemaking Award recognizes the innovation, collaboration and expertise of the many partners Newland works with to create exceptional places and experiences.

Wendell Falls, Newland’s master-planned community in Wendell, was excited to present the McLeod award to Garman Homes, one of its builders! Garman is only one of four businesses across the U.S. to receive this award this year.

Garman’s Hero Home Project

The McLeod Award honored Garman for its incredible Hero Home project. In 2020, Garman Homes joined forced with Nonprofit Operation: Coming Home, the U.S. Veterans Corps and the HBA of Raleigh-Wake County to build a pro bono “Hero Home” for the family of a recently fallen soldier – Sgt. Barreto.

Client Wendell Falls Unveils Hero Home

We’re excited and honored when we have the opportunity to partner with incredible clients who give back to our community. And this is just such an occasion.

On Veterans Day 2020, client Wendell Falls gathered with its partners to honor a legacy – the legacy of SFC Elis A. Barreto who dedicated his life to his country, who served with courage and who made the ultimate sacrifice for his nation.

Wendell Falls, along with Garman Homes, the HBA of Raleigh-Wake County, the U.S. Veterans Corps and Operation: Coming Home, hosted a patriotic key ceremony to unveil a “Hero Home” to the family of SFC Barreto, who died in combat in September 2019. The first in Wendell, this Hero Home was given to Legna, SFC Barreto’s wife, and her children as a gift to honor his service. Fresh Paint by Garman, one of Wendell Falls’ award-winning builders, constructed the house on a homesite donated by Newland.

Called a Hero Home Finale, the key ceremony celebrated the life and accomplishments of SFC Barreto. The event featured patriotic songs from the Bombshells along with heart-felt comments from government officials, Garman, Newland, the HBA … and finally Legna herself.

Partners unveiled exciting gifts for Legna and her family, such as technology from Lenovo, a golf cart from Garman (for the Wendell Falls culture!), a refurbished car and even a special military-themed room for Legna’s two boys.

We were thrilled to share this heart-warming story with our community and the media. If you want to get a glimpse of the day in action, check out one of these stories!
