Legacy

Farming has been in the Jones's family for over 5 generations! Beginning in Bradshaw, MD on Jones Rd in the late 1880s as Welsh and Polish immigrants, the Jones' grew vegetables like green beans, tomatoes, and potatoes for their roadside stand off rt 40 and cannery in Baltimore. 

Today’s Jones Family farmers are Maurice Jones Jr, Deborah Jones, Allison Jones, and Reese Jones. Together, we are dedicated Christian stewards of the land, plants, our streams, and the Edgewood community. Utilizing practices such as crop rotation, no tillage agriculture, pollinator infrastructure, certified organic planting media/seeds/liners/ect., natural mulches, and more to ensure a safe, healthy growing and learning environment for our Edgewood family. We are not focused on the maximization of today’s harvest, but instead on our ever-growing family’s commitment to raising the healthiest culturally relevant produce for decades to come. 

Our neighborhood has grown significantly since selling produce on a small covered wagon on the side of the highway. Today we have the honor of serving the diverse urban community of Edgewood and greater Baltimore with their beautiful tastes and unique cuisines. Not only do we grow produce, but we also provide the most essential ingredient required for any garden, starter plants. All plants grown in our fields used as produce for your family is available for purchase every spring in our garden center. We specialize in plants not found in large nurseries such as Japanese eggplant or Roma beans, because we care about the need to preserve your family’s unique traditions and customs passed from generation to generation. We are a family farm! 

Beyond growing seedlings and produce, our farmers love educating the tens of thousands of school children who choose our farm for field trips every Spring and Fall. We have many ways of sharing the love of plants and the environment to our Maryland family, and those educational opportunities are available to groups of 15 or more of all ages.

In 2001, we purchased a farm in Street, MD where we now grow Christmas Trees and make Christmas wreaths and garland for purchase beginning in November! 
Once again, we love you all, and we are passionate to serve your every agricultural need! We want to be your farm family, so if you are interested in joining ours’, consider being a CSA member today!
