Tobacco farming has a long and rich tradition in North Carolina that dates back to the 1600s. The state is known for its high-quality tobacco, and North Carolina is, in fact, the largest producer of tobacco in the United States, accounting for almost half.
Vick Family Farms is proud to be a part of this long tradition and stewardship. Founded in 1975, tobacco was the first crop Jerome and Diane Vick, founders of Vick Family Farms, grew on its simple plot of fifteen acres. Working full-time day jobs, the couple tended the crop before the sun rose, well past it set, and on weekends.
This hard work and perseverance are the foundations that has grown Vick Family Farms into an advanced and innovative tobacco grower and diversified farming leader on its now 9,000+ acre farm that spans a 30-mile radius in Wilson County, North Carolina.
Linwood “Lyn” Vick, son of Jerome and Diane, now leads the growing operations of Vick Family Farms with his niece Grayson Ferrell. An award-winning farmer, Lyn is known across the nation for his hard work, innovation, and gritty determination. He is the quintessential modern-day farmer: cell phone in one hand explaining tobacco harvesting instructions in Spanish and an office phone in the other explaining spraying information for cotton in English.
