Fruit

Our family LOVES fresh fruit. We are proud to grow strawberries, blackberries, peaches, and apples, plums & pears that your family can enjoy, too.

Based here on our Robertson County farm, growing fresh produce means the world to us, and we are so proud to share it with your family.

Vegetables

Matthew’s first taste of farming was growing corn and selling it out of his truck as a teenager.

Needless to say, we still grow corn, along with sweet potatoes, potatoes, Lee’s candy onions (named after our son and his LOVE for onions), potatoes, turnips, kale, tomatoes, green beans, turnip greens, mustard greens, and October beans.

Stay tuned to our social media to see what’s in season and how in stock we are in the latest items!

Matthew and Jodi Hancock live on Hancock Family Farm with their four children. They grow many crops – including corn, green beans, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, blackberries, peaches, apples, soybeans, turnip greens, strawberries, wheat and livestock – to name a few. Farming has been a lifelong passion of Matthew’s, as he was born and raised on the land that he now farms and raises his children. The farm is located in Springfield, Tennessee has been in the family for over 100 years! Matthew and Jodi love how farming connects them with the community and they are able to provide the freshest fruits and vegetables for their friends and family. In 2019, Matthew and Jodi opened a farm market located just down the road from the farm at 7114 Highway 49 East in Springfield, TN. You can find their produce at the market during growing season, and at various farmers markets in the greater Nashville area.

“I’ve seen many family members leave the farm, but I wouldn’t trade places with anyone. The farm has been in our family for 108 years. We actually live in my great-grandparents house where my grandfather was born.”
