About

Simons Farms is located just south of Elkton, Kentucky on 181 south. We are family owned & operated. Our operation is unique in that we are very diverse. We row crop corn, wheat and beans. Our year begins in January when we prepare our greenhouses and plant tomatoes so they will be ready for April sales. Strawberries have been planted since last fall and we monitor their growth and needs for spring picking. Tobacco is started in its greenhouse and will be grown from seed until time to transplant them in the spring. Once spring "arrives," produce is in full swing. We have a diverse selection of produce with our main emphasis being tomatoes, strawberries, sweet corn, watermelon, cantaloupe and many more. Once tobacco is cut and housed, it is fired in barns to cure and give the "varnished" look and one-of-a-kind smell. Late summer into fall, our mums will be ready to share. Along with the large selection of mums, we have thousands of pumpkins in more than 80 varieties that have been growing all summer that are ready for picking as well as delicious winter squash, indian corn, wheat bundles, corn shocks for your decorating needs. Straw bales in 2 sizes are available as well as cotton and other straight-from-the-field natural décor. Our livestock also gets daily attention. Farming is not only our passion and our way of life but a lifelong dedication to nature, community, family and most importantly God.
