Green Horizons Turf Farms father and son

History

When J. Ware, III started Green Horizons Turf Farms more than twenty years ago, he was continuing a family history of farming in Jefferson County that spans at least seven generations and dates back more than 200 years. The rich soils of the Garden of the Shenandoah Valley, combined with unique growing practices, has gained the farm an unbeatable reputation amongst some of the region’s top golf courses, country clubs and prestigious landscaping firms.

J graduated from West Virginia University with a degree in Agricultural Business; where he focused his final semesters on turf management. But the learning didn’t stop there. J is continually researching and trying new seed varieties, growing methods and crop rotations to produce the best possible turfgrass sod. In addition to producing visually appealing, and resilient sod, he also strives to maintain the integrity of the soil and the land for generations to come.

Green Horizons is truly a labor of love for the entire family. After a 12 year career in the television news industry, J’s wife, Andrea, joined him full-time on the farm. And the couple’s two children, August and Edy, are a regular part of the daily farm operations.

Why sod?

 Testimonial

During 20+ year in the industry, I couldn’t be happier with the product and service provided by J. and the entire team at Green Horizons as we embark in a major renovation heading into the ‘24 United States Women’s Open. The project started two years ago as we began converting our walk paths and intermediate cuts around greens to HGT maintained at 3/4 of inch. The establishment has received rave reviews not only from my membership but from the USGA on aesthetics and playability. This past winter we began the second phase with a bunker and tee renovation in which we are using GH Tall Fescue for the surrounds. Again, in 20+ years I couldn’t be more impressed with the density, spring green up and weed free turf. I’m excited on a continued growing relationship with Green Horizons as we soon take the national stage showcasing our combined talents.
