Dalton Farms is a 99 acre family owned and run farm conveniently located in southern New Jersey just off of 322, and in close proximity to Commodore Barry (3.7 Miles), and Delaware Memorial Bridge (12 Miles). With family ties to the farm extending back to 1790, the Dalton Family is proud to continue this tradition now under the ownership of Keith, Ann, and Connor.
Owning the farm has been a dream for Keith since he was ten years old. Now in 2019, Dalton Farms has become a place of adventure with a beautiful 6 acre lake and 10 thriving beehives.
Visitors are welcome to come explore during our various festivals. To learn more, please visit our events page.
Much like his grandfather, after Keith and his family purchased the farm, the question of “How do we leverage this beautiful place and support what it has become to our family?” was at the forefront of Keith, Ann and Connor’s minds. Keith began by starting beehives on the farm and now has 10 thriving hives producing Dalton Farms Hi Honey! Along with his good friend, Chris Viereck of Random Acts of Farmage Agritainment, Dalton Farms originally hosted Civil War re-enactments on the sprawling 99 acres.
Keith and Chris then decided to take a leap of faith, much like Keith’s grandfather, and planted 1.2 million sunflowers of all varieties and the 1st Annual Dalton Farms Sunflower Festival was born. The question raised to Mr. Shoemaker all those years ago resurfaced as they embarked on this journey; “What do you two know about throwing a festival?”
Thanks to our family, friends, the Swedesboro and surrounding communities and the Facebook and Instagram universe of followers you helped us prove that once again, this land and individuals with boyhood dreams and determination can make things happen and the Sunflower Festival was a success!
We think Grandpa Shoemaker would be incredibly proud of these new #RandomActsofFarmage.
