Skipper Farms is a local family owned produce farm working to satisfy your quest for fresh locally grown fresh produce. Dad and Grandpa have been farming and marketing their sweet corn and tomatoes since the 1940's and have been complemented by customers thousands and thousands of times for the wonderful fresh taste and quality. They were pioneers for organic growing methods and were friends of the movement promoting environmentally friendly farming practices. There policy was to market only the best and the freshest for all to thoroughly enjoy. We continue to follow their guidelines for integrity and pride of quality.

We first opened in Chesapeake at the original Red Shed on Battlefield Blvd. near the Chesapeake hospital in 1982, subsequently we operated the Green Thumb Market on South Battlefield on the road to N.C., after that we farmed a u-pick strawberry farm on S. Centerville in Hickory area  (we no longer have that location ). We currently farm just southeast of the Chesapeake Great Bridge Area and another in Greenbrier area. Our variety of homegrown fruits and vegetables includes everything from melt-in-your-mouth green beans and candy sweet cantaloupes, to numerous types of savory heirloom tomatoes, luscious strawberries, super fresh tender corn on the cob, tree ripened juicy peaches, and sweet mouth watering watermelons. Complementing these delicious items are other farm products such as free range eggs, honey, jams and pickles, apple butter, apple cider,peach cider,bedding plants, and flowers.

The Skipper family is dedicated to offering superior customer service and the highest quality products! We eat what we grow and therefore avoid the use of synthetic pesticides and herbicides,  no genetically modified (GMO) seed, antibiotics, or growth hormones in our practices.
