    Don't Pass Us By!A hand holds a full bucket of strawberries up to the camera at Smith's Nursery in Benson, NC.

    Johnston County is a destination located "just outside the city", only 30 minutes east of Raleigh, and convenient for visitors traveling through NC at the crossroads of I-95 and I-40! Be sure to #VisitJoCo!

    Our rich history, outlet shopping at Carolina Premium Outlets, recreation, agritourism, and emerging culinary scene are just a few reasons to stop and stay a while...don't pass us by! 

    Events are back in JoCo and our event calendar continues to fill-up as warm weather returns. In addition, April and May are strawberry season in Johnston County with multiple family farms in the area welcoming families to pick-their-own right out of the field.
