The farm has its roots in 1946, when the Patterson family began selling produce grown from the land they'd farmed since 1919 under the name James A. Patterson & Sons. The family nurtured the land and business through the years, and in 1992, the farm was incorporated as Patterson Farm, Inc.
Today we continue the work of James A. Patterson and his sons. We grow 350 acres of tomatoes, making us one of the largest growers in the state. In addition, we grow 36 acres of strawberries, 40 acres of pumpkins, and 15,000 poinsettias. During peak season, Patterson Farm, Inc. and our three divisions - Patterson Farm Repack, Patterson Landscape & Nursery, and Patterson Farm Market & Tours - employ more than 300 people.
When we're not planting, harvesting, packaging, and distributing our produce, we're working on our other mission: to educate visitors about North Carolina farming, where their food comes from and how it makes its way to their table.
