Part of FARM Hospitality Group
One of those relationships started directly between the founding partners of our sister restaurant, FARM in Bluffton, South Carolina. In 2013, founders Ryan and Joanne Williamson purchased a 5-acre farm outside of Bluffton. Soon after, Ryan began to sell produce to the restaurants at Palmetto Bluff. Through those purchases, a relationship began to form between Ryan and then Executive Chef at Palmetto Bluff, Brandon Carter. As this relationship continued to grow, so did Ryan’s desire to open a restaurant of his own. So, with the help of Chef Brandon, together they opened FARM in Old Town Bluffton in the Fall of 2016. As business continued to prosper, Ryan and Brandon were approached by long-time FARM guests and Palmetto Bluff residents Alan and Karen Sheriff on the possibility of opening another concept in Savannah.
And with those ideas in motion, Common Thread was born.
