FAQs

A: The name “Jaemor” is a blend of family heritage. The farm was originally known as Echols Orchard, but to avoid confusion with other “Echols” farms in the region, founders Jimmy Allen Echols and his wife Valvoreth Morrison Echols created a unique name by combining his initials (J.A.E.) and her maiden name (Morrison). Thus, Jaemor Farms was born in 1981.

A: During the spring, summer, and fall, we grow much of what you see in our market right here on the farm.
