Story

Billy Long and Frank Scott, Jr. were childhood friends from the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Billy, who had been a Zellwood "muck farmer" for years, talked Frank into joining him in Florida in 1963. Frank D. Scott, Jr., along with his wife Becky and their three children, Hank, Marks and Rebecca, moved to Florida to establish Long & Scott Farms on 100 acres of land. For the next 30 plus years Frank expanded Long & Scott Farms to 1,200 acres as they produced Zellwood Sweet Corn, pickle cucumbers and both red & green cabbage, along with a variety of other produce.

Following the sale of the Apopka muck farms in 1998, Billy Long moved on to retirement, while Frank Scott semi-retired. He still oversees operations at the farm each day, while his son Hank now manages the farm. Frank's daughter Rebecca Scott Ryan manages Scott's Maze Adventures and his youngest son Marks, who also once worked at the farm, manages his own nursery, PlowBoys Horticulture, along with his wife, Mary. Hank's son Sonny and daugher Haley represents the 4th generation of the Scott family's farming tradition and they remain proud of their history and land which they have overseen for more than 48 years.

Mission

At Long & Scott Farms, our first - and last - commitment - is to our valued customers. Thank you for your continued support and for helping us continue to bring our products from our farm to your table. We are proud to be in our fourth generation of farming and continuing our long tradition of growing fine produce.

At the farm, everyone is committed to growing and shipping the finest quality produce. Each member of our highly qualified and dedicated staff and management team at our corporate office has an important role in the successful operation of the farm. From land preparation, through planting, growing, harvest and shipping, each member of our organization recognizes the importance of satisfying our consumers.

Our state-of-the-art facility and machinery help ensure the finest quality produce leaves the farm. So much so that today, our corn can be found in the finest gourmet and specialty stores and our cucumbers are available in major terminal markets throughout the country and are bottled by Claussen Pickle Co., United Pickle Products, Mt. Olive Pickles, Puckered Pickle, Chipico/Vienna Beef, and many mom-and-pop companies in the Northeast and Chicago. Even the coleslaw you're eating may be from our Fresh Market cabbage. The farm also now grows 50 acres of Sod each year to meet the needs of local landscapers and developers.

But don't just take our word for it - put us to the test. Buy the Scott's Brand "Fresh from Florida" produce from your local grocer. If you don't see "Fresh From Florida" produce ask for it, insist on it, or get it direct from Long And Scott Farms at Scott's Country Market, open in the spring (May) and the Fall (Oct & Nov).

Be prepared! In late October it was very hot! Bring water, umbrellas for shade, hats, etc to keep cooler. There is a lot to do here for kids and as 2 adults, we still had fun. However, I may wait until later in the year next time...or when a cooler front moves in. There are a few vendors to buy drinks or snacks and a little market that sells fresh vegetables and jams. They have different mazes and a hayride, too. The hayride is extra but the other mazes are included in the entrance fee. When starting, they herd you into a small hot building to watch a "safety" video and then let you loose...through a cement tunnel. We did not find everything, got too hot, but had a fun afternoon.

Its that time of the year ya'll ! Come out and visit the farm. Fresh produce available for purchase, lots of festive activities for everyone to enjoy. Must try the corn maze, its one of my favorite things to to when visiting the farm. This is a good place to take autumn pictures with the whole family. They offer something for everyone in the family.

Good days fun but not when it's hot, no shade and bring the wallet and cash. Nice up grades on the playground. No true food, eat first or bring snacks. You can keep it on the car , in and out ok.

Fun corn maze and hay ride through the farm. Make sure to have some fried corn while you're here, and enjoy a strawberry shortcake!
