100 Years of Resilience.

Our Mission

Our family takes great pride in the fresh product we grow and deliver to you, straight from the sandy soils of the Eastern Shore.  Every square foot we harvest is grown under full irrigation and cut to order, as close to pick-up or delivery time as possible.  We want to make sure you are confident in your sod selection and invite you to give us a call if you have any questions. We’re happy to discuss our current varieties being grown, your project and the process of installing and caring for your new sod.

Our Story

Our farming operation started in 1921 when Arlington and Olive Moore purchased a small farm at a steamboat landing named Collins' Wharf along the Wicomico River on the Eastern Shore.  Arlington and Olive maintained their purchase through the depression years by raising many types of vegetables, fishing and trapping. They sold eggs, chickens, and butter. The holly wreaths they made in the winter months brought in some additional income. The farm prospered.  In 1946 Fred Moore, Sr., joined the operation and expanded it to approximately two hundred acres growing grains and vegetables. Starting in the mid 60's with the help of his wife Connie, and sons Fred Jr. and Scott, we grew again to eight hundred acres.

In the mid 70's, Fred Sr. and Fred Jr. formed a partnership and the farm grew to eighteen hundred acres. In 1999 with Eddie, Fred Jr.'s son, joining the operation, beginning  the production and sale of sod. Starting with thirty acres of fescue, thirty acres bluegrass, and six acres of bentgrass. The remaining fourteen hundred acres was planted in grains and vegetables. 

Today we have expanded to over 600 acres of tall fescue, bluegrass, bentgrass, and bermudagrass.  We are dedicated to carry on the hard work and honest business practices that began 100 years ago and invite you to come and visit the farm to meet our family and see the operation for yourself.

“My great grandparents started this legacy, my grandparents and father continued it. My goal is not about what I can do for myself but what can I do for the next generation.”
