Our History

Since the establishment of our very first citrus grove in 1938 by Alfred, Hilda & William H Nelson, our family has always taken the approach of hard work, honest business and only providing excellent quality.

From selling our Citrus Fruit out of Alfred and Hilda’s first home (still existing on the farm today) to operating the largest open-air produce market in the area, we have always taken great effort to love what we do and do it well.

Today, you may see Bill, Charlotte, Dan, Lisa Nelson, Cheryl Nelson Platt or Jennifer Nelson Lincoln on the farm at any given day.  Our staff and family try our very best to make your experience so good………. you will want to come back over and over.

Farmers We Work With

Nelson Family Farms supports Know Your Farmer and Farm to Plate programs. Why is that important? Because selling directly to customers, means farmers and their children can keep doing what they love to do—feed growing cities.

Our family works hard to procure products with our local Treasure Coast farmer’s first, Florida regional crops as they yield, the Continental U.S., and global resources when U.S. crops have ended.

Our process of procurement results in minimizing shipping & distribution time while providing you with a fresh bountiful and astoundingly diverse array of fresh fruits and vegetables.
