About Us
Our Story & History
Heritage Fields Farm was established in the summer of 1999 when David Derrick was 14 years old. David, an award wining farmer, started out with just two rows in his mother's garden, planting only tomatoes. After over two decades of continuous growth, David now plants more than 40 acres of vegetables with more than 30 different types of vegetables during all months of the year. Everything is picked fresh daily from the fields.

Picked Fresh Daily from our Fields
Each day we hand-pick our produce from our fields and provide it for sale at our building on Broad River Rd in Irmo, SC.
Founder of Heritage Fields Farm
David Derrick
My goal is to always provide fresh local produce at a reasonable price to the community. I farm using the practice of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). This practice is an approach to farming with the main goal being to greatly reduce the use of pesticides. This is done by crop rotation, use of beneficial insects, and the use of disease resistant cultivars.
I started out with one small table in my parent's front yard in 1999, and today we sell out of a free standing building on Broad River Rd. The vegetable building is open daily in the summer and every other day in the winter/fall/spring.
