J-Mar Farms

The last farm I'll be featuring holds a special place for me.  J-Mar Farms gave me my first summer job when I was sixteen.  I worked there every summer in high school and through college.  I even worked there up until the week before I had Josh!  I have many, many fond memories of friendships and lots of fun.  It was hard work.  It was usually pretty hot, and we were almost always busy. 



J-Mar Farms is a family business owned by Jimmy and Debi Markey.  Their produce is fabulous.  They have sweet strawberries, juicy melons, delicious peaches and apricots, and the best corn in the county (or probably anywhere). 











New this year will be baked goods - pies, cookies, cupcakes, and sand tarts.

  3. My kids were there just today with their Nana picking strawberries (in this 100 degree heat!). I wish we lived closer to them.
