The ranch is a beautiful place where family and friends can go to enjoy a fun filled day of entertainment.
Urban Folk Farm is a new farm on the southwest corner of Jacksonville located near the Equestrian Center. We are two city folks from Miami who want to provide naturally grown, great tasting, and healthy food to the Jacksonville community.
The fall of 2014 was our first planting season. This year, we are planting several varieties of bok choy, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, and lettuce, carrots, beets and many more delicious vegetables. Not only are we planting on our fields, but part of Urban Folk Farm is also dedicated to small scale permaculture; we’ve got veggies growing all over! We have small orchard of young fruit and nut trees. Currently, we have a few free range chickens, but our girls don’t venture too far from their coop because of the hawks in the pine scrub that surrounds our farm. We have a limited amount of eggs for sale.
We look forward to meeting you all at the local farmers markets, but in the meantime feel free to give us a call, or stop by and hangout for a bit in our little piece of paradise!
We are a small family owned apiary on the Westside of Jacksonville, Florida. We offer Local Honey, Nucs, and VSH Queen Bees. Free Swarm Removal.
We started out to raise the best food for our own family and now we are able to share it with yours.
Real farm food that is free from toxins, corruption and cruelty and produced in North Florida. Delivery route through Jacksonville, St Augustine, Middleburg and Green Cove Springs.

We are a homeschooling family of seven with a small goat farm, who loves to be outdoors, in the forest, in the garden, on the water or out with our animals… we’re happiest outside in the beautiful Florida sunshine!
After years of people asking us to come and visit the farm, we decided to start an organized homeschool group, but it turned into a lot more than that! Almost a year later and we are running Homeschool groups, Preschool groups, Family Farm Days, and Camps. We continue adding new programs all the time – all at the request of interested families!
We are so happy to be able to share what we have with everyone! Providing a place to learn about, nurture and connect with animals that aren’t seen in most people’s everyday life. Come and spend some time with us and experience a little of what it’s like to be a Farmer for a Day!
We believe the food we provide our family should be fresh and safe. At Traders Hill Farm, we aim to inspire a new generation of farming, and a cleaner, safer way of eating. In 2013 we set out to create a sustainable aquaponics farm that would become the standard bearer for cleaner, safer lettuce, herbs, specialty produce, and fish. Traders Hill Farm is the largest environmentally-safe aquaponics production facility in the Southeastern United States based in the heart of Northeast Florida’s farmland in Hilliard, Florida. Our products are in the finest grocery stores, restaurants, and resorts throughout Northeast Florida, Central Florida and Southern Georgia regions. We invite you to join our ever-growing family.
Towers Family Farms is family-owned and operated since 2013. Our business started over a Thanksgiving meal in 2012. By 2013, the 300-acre farm became a reality in Palatka, FL, and was given the name Towers Family Farms. In 2014 we planted 10 acres of blueberries, which has since grown to 20 acres, all of which are USDA certified. In 2020 we added a small U-Pick strawberry patch to our farm and are in the process of building a brand new 6,000 sq. ft. event venue. We are pleased to provide quality products and services to our loyal friends and future customers.
Please check out our events page for the latest information about U-Picks and local availability in Jacksonville. We are also planning a number of exciting events in the future, so stay tuned. You can also visit us on Facebook and Instagram.
Bring your family out for a hands-on farming experience as you pick your own produce or cut flowers. Check with us for product availability and special events before booking your appointment during the week. We are open Saturdays from 8 am-3 pm.
