Jackson Farming Company, founded in 1981, is a family-owned and operated business, located in the heart of Sampson County near Fayetteville, NC. We grow, pack, ship, and broker fresh fruits and vegetables year round.

Jackson Farming Company is dedicated to serving you in any way we possibly can. Brent and Debbie Jackson and their sons share in the responsibility of turning a family farm into a successful and competitive agribusiness.

our pet Rotweiler
In 1997, we were fortunate to have our oldest son, Rodney, follow in his dad's footsteps as he became general manager of the JFC farming operation. Teenager Josh is learning all aspects of the farming and fruit and vegetable produce business.

Over the years, the Jackson's have had to overcome several obstacles and setbacks. First, a hail storm in 1992 wiped out their large cantaloupe crop. Then in the fall of 1999, we were hit with two hurricanes that wiped out our entire fall crop harvest.

The most devastating loss, though, was the sudden death of our second son, Adam, in March of 2001 in a tragic car accident. A graduating senior, Adam had already been accepted to attend North Carolina State University and study agricultural business.

Adam's Memorial Scholarship
In an effort to honor and memorialize our love for our son, we have created the Adam Brent Jackson Memorial Scholarship Endowment at North Carolina State University. To learn more about how Adam's love for sports resulted in a unique donation to his scholarship endowment and how you can help us meet our goal, please go to Adam's Memorial Scholarship.

On September 4, 2003 Jordan Grace Jackson became the newest member of the Jackson Family. She is the daughter of Rodney and Melissa Jackson.
