Springdale Farms is a family owned farmers' market located on Springdale Road in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, United States. It is currently Cherry Hill's only operational farm. [1] [2] [3]
Springdale Farms was founded in 1949 when Alan Ebert purchased the land. At the time, three quarters of Cherry Hill was farmland. Alan's widow, Mary, along with her children, took over operations of the 100-acre (40 ha) farm after his death. A fire in 1988 destroyed the farm's 3,800 square feet (350 m2) retail building. [4]
In late 1998, Springdale Road was widened from two lanes to four lanes, including a center left-turn lane. [5] The construction claimed some of the farm's land and caused a detour that diverted traffic away from the farm, negatively affecting its business. In 1999, the farm expanded to add three greenhouses, totaling 9,600 square feet (890 m2), where baked goods, crafts and other farm products are sold. [6] In 2006, a fence was constructed in response to the significant number of deer in the forest area surrounding the farm. [7]

The Agriculture Retention and Development Act was created as part of New Jersey's efforts to counteract the loss of farmland in the state. The legislation formed the basis needed for the state to purchase the easements of New Jersey farms in order to ensure they remain as farms, and could never be sold for housing or for non-farming commercial development. The effect was to slow farmland loss in the state. The farmland preservation efforts made in New Jersey have effectively kept the farms as private land with a public legacy of permanent farm status. As of July 2022, New Jersey has permanently preserved 2,800 farms covering 247,517 acres.
