The History of Our Farm

In 1973, Jack's Creek was started by Mr. Ed Ruark. Damon Malcom and Mark Batchelor began operations at Jack's Creek Farm in 1995. Damon began working there at only 12 years old, and Mark joined his Junior Year of high school. Together, they have 60 years of nursery experience. Mark graduated from the University of Georgia in 1987 with a B.S.A. in Ornamental Horticulture, while Damon brings many years of experience to the company.

During the first year of operation, over 950 trees, consisting of 3 different species, were planted in one acre of land. All of the trees were planted in root control bags and are machine dug out of the field. Since February of 2000, Jack's Creek Farm plants more than 10,000 trees yearly with 50 different species!

The goal of Jack's Creek Nursery has always been to produce high-quality trees for customers at a reasonable price.

Damon and Mark are pleased to invite you and your family to visit Jack's Creek Farm.
