Yee Farms began in Great Meadows, New Jersey in 1940. The first farm location was on the higher elevation, mountainous, muck soils. The rich soil in this area was conducive for the growth of various brassicas. However, due to the higher elevations, the seasons were shorter than surrounding areas, as cooler weather would affect the crops sooner.

Knowing that product availability was integral to the long-term success of the farm, in 1965 the operation expanded to South Jersey, thus lengthening the growing season. Wanting to supply their produce in the winter months as well, Thomas and Nancy Yee made the decision to expand the operation once again by moving to South Florida’s Boynton Beach in 1974. The proximity to the Atlantic Ocean’s Gulf Stream to the east, and the Everglades to the west, results in a warm pocket around the Boynton area, which allows for prime growing during the winter months.

Thomas and Nancy continue to farm in Palm Beach and Saint Lucie Counties with their two sons, Roland and Ethan, and daughters-in-law, Amy and Kristin. Today, over 85 years after it all began, Yee Farms remains a trusted name in consistently delivering the safest and highest quality specialty Asian produce. They feature a wide variety of Asian leaf items such as cilantro, Bok Choy, Napa cabbage, baby Bok Choy, Gai Lan, and Taiwanese Flat cabbage. Yee Farms is also PrimusGFS food safety certified. They know the safety and security of their food because they sow the seed, grow the crop, harvest the field, and ship the product. Yee Farms provides honest and dependable customer service because they grow to understand their customer needs.
