The farm was founded in 1991 by Maynard and Marie, who began with 25 acres and built their operation from the ground up. Originally working in manufacturing and retail, they transitioned into farming after the birth of their first child, starting with turkey production for Prestage Farms in Cassatt. Over time, they expanded their operations, growing the land and diversifying into fruit cultivation and family entertainment. Though rooted in rural heritage, Marie grew up on a hog farm and Maynard developed his green thumb early, their farm now features a mix of agricultural production and community activities, including a playground and seasonal events. The original family farm in Home Branch remains a point of connection, with its historic hog barn still standing and now used by grazing cattle.

Dorr Farms is located on Dorr Acres Rd, approximately a mile from Mayewood Middle School and two miles from both Gable Highway and the Black River Lookout Tower. Eastern School lies about 2.7 miles away, placing the farm within a short drive of several local educational institutions.

The farm’s high customer rating and extensive review base reflect a long-standing commitment to quality and community engagement. Its consistent positive feedback underscores its trusted status as a go-to destination for fresh, seasonal produce and family fun in the Gable area.

Dorr Farms stands as a cherished local institution where seasonal harvests, outdoor play, and family memories come together in the heart of rural SC.
