About AA Farms LLC
Our Story
After living next door since 2008, our family purchased this Bluff Road blueberry farm in January 2024 with a mission to rescue a piece of Lower Richland’s farming heritage. What began decades ago as a dairy farm—and later a family-run pick-your-own berry patch—had gone dormant after three years of devastating late frosts left the fields overgrown and untended.
Today, our primary purpose is service and restoration. Alongside teaching our children the value of hard work, we partner with Teen Challenge, a faith-based recovery ministry, to help young men overcome addiction. Together, we are rebuilding the irrigation, clearing the weeds, and bringing life back to 10 acres of berry bushes. Our prayer is simple: that as these young men help restore the farm, this place of hope helps restore them.
Anchored by Hosea 10:12, a reminder that when we seek the Lord, He draws near. We pray your family is blessed every time you visit. And, most importantly, that you Pick with a Purpose.
Our Farming Experience
At AA Farms LLC, we grow the freshest blueberries, muscadine grapes, and raise bees to produce farm fresh honey. Our produce is hand-picked by our customers, going from our farm directly to your table! Check out our Facebook page for more information on dates and times for season openings!
Special Thanks
We want to thank the Teen Challenge Southeast Region men of Columbia SC. We are so proud of the hard work and effort you have poured into this project! We also want to offer special thanks to Rob Last from the Clemson Extension. His wealth of knowledge on crop production in order to cultivate a quality product for the well-being of those in the surrounding community has been a true blessing. We couldn't have opened this season without your help!
