Hawfields is an unincorporated community in Alamance County, North Carolina, United States.

Hawfields was first populated by Ulster Irish and Western African immigrants as early as the 17th century, but a firm establishment was not achieved until 1740–1750 and was originally called "Haw Old Fields" by the settlers because of the Haw River which runs partially through Hawfields and neighboring Mebane.

Hawfields is located on North Carolina Highway 119, southwest of Mebane. It is one of the oldest communities in Alamance County, being referenced in historical works on the Sissipahaw. It is the site of the oldest church in Alamance County, Hawfields Presbyterian Church, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. This church was the seat of Orange Presbytery, which was formed in 1770.
