Ritter Farms

Ritter Farms is best known for its great-tasting Grainger County Tomatoes.

The Ritters regularly host agritourism events such as live country and bluegrass concerts and seasonal festivals on the farm.

The Ritter family has been involved in farming, especially growing tomatoes since the early 1970's. Ritter Farms is a second-generation family farm owned and operated by Stanley and Tonya Ritter. In addition to those great-tasting Grainger County tomatoes, the Ritters grow a variety of garden vegetables which can be purchased as they're brought out of the field at the Big Red Barn on Hwy 11W between Bean Station and Rutledge, Tennessee.
