About Jaemor
Jaemor Farms is a family owned and operated business that has been producing quality produce for more than 100 years. We recognize the growing importance of high quality, fresh produce; therefore, we practice sustainable agriculture in all that we do – and you can taste the difference in all of our produce – from ripe, juicy peaches to sweet strawberries to delicious white half runner beans. The fruit of our labor is for your pleasure, and we hope you can appreciate our efforts as much as we do. We take pride in our ability to offer fresh quality produce and strive to deliver a taste you can’t experience elsewhere. Beyond an on-farm shopping, we have also offer activities for all ages including an annual six-acre corn maze, farm tours and field trips. Jaemor Farms is more than a family business, it is an outdoor experience that you, your family, class and organization can all enjoy.
