Johnny's has been in business since 1949. It was started by John Swols, who grew up growing tobacco with his mother and brothers, right here in Enfield. Farming was in his blood, and after he married he cleared the seven acres where the greenhouses and produce stand are today and started "Johnny's Roadside Market Garden". A true pioneer, Johnny built his own home, wood framed greenhouses, one by one, and then the stand.
Johnny passed away in 2001, and Mrs. Johnny passed away in 2017.
The farm has been continued by their daughter, Linda and grandson, Justin. Throughout the years, greenhouses have been updated and added, the stand has increased in size, an endless number of flowers have blossomed, and acres of vegetables have been harvested.
