  Reviews

  Patterson Farm, Inc. provides our customers with the highest quality produce, plants and service at a competitive price. Our employees are committed to continuous improvement and involvement to ensure customer satisfaction. Our 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; 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. We are proud to be a destination of choice for regional educational tours and families. Customers voted Patterson Farm 2018 Most-Loved Place to go in Hulafrog's Most-Loved regional contest. Our Fall Fun on the Farm Weekend Events run from Sept. 2 - Nov. 3, 2018. Weekend Activity Hours are Saturday & Sunday: 10:00-6:00. In addition to all our normal attractions we have special events and themed weekends planned throughout the season. Come on out and create some memories and enjoy some Fall Fun on the Farm. Tickets can be purchased online at www.visitpattersonfarm.ticketleap.com. 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. NOTE: Pets are not allowed on the farm, even if on a leash. (less) ... Read more
