A Brief History of Woodbine Farms, Inc.

In 1898, Dr. Isaac Brumback purchased Woodbine Farms and laid the foundation for what has become our "Century Farm". In 1926, Dr. Brumback willed the property to his son, Harman, who had already built a home and barn on the property. He was married to Miss Fannie Funkhouser of Lebanon Church, VA. They continued to farm while raising their two sons, Henry and Frank.

The farm grew in acreage and products, as two more children blessed the family; another son, James, and a daughter, Margaret. The children matured, continued on the farm, and in 1965 became Woodbine Farms, Inc.  Only the title changed, as the owners remained the same family; spirited siblings and parents welcoming each new day.

Of course, time has led to the attrition of people and crops. Harman and Fannie have been gone for many years, but the siblings and cousins continue working together to keep Woodbine Farms, Inc. running as the same family farm it has always been.  In 1998, the farm was designated a "Century Farm" and officially recognized by the Commonwealth of Virginia for being continuously and actively farmed by the same family for 100 years or more.

We added our Farm Market in 2006, allowing us to continue bringing our best and freshest products to our customers and friends.
