Family

Tied To The Land

Always tied to the land, the Garland family has been farming for generations. They were one of the first in the area to introduce no-till corn and other innovations. It’s these innovations that resulted in David Garland being selected the outstanding young farmer of 1966.

This continuous innovation was always present on the farm. So by the late 80’s, every cow wore a computer chip as a part of a high technology feeding system. It’s this spirit of progress and awareness of trends that led to the transition of Garland Farms from a thriving dairy farm into a welcoming community.

However, unlike other farmers who sold their land to developers, the Garland family chose to develop the land themselves to better control the vision, practices and direction of Garland Farms Estates. As a result, Garland Farms Estates is a Master Planned Community, developed based on comprehensive research and with a constant eye to preserving the environment, wildlife, soil quality and water the development and surrounding community.
