Fulper Family Farmstead

For more than a century, the Fulper family has been making pure, wholesome dairy products and growing high quality crops

Fulper Family Farmstead

The Farm Timeline

1909

Our story began in 1909 when Mary Fulper moved to Lambertville, NJ and brought one cow with her, where her family started growing vegetables.

New Jersey Farms in the 1920s

Mary’s son, Norman and his wife, Harriet took over the farm in 1918 and bought their first tractor in 1923.

Women Farmers in 1920s

1940s

They gradually expanded the farm while milking 20 cows by hand, growing tomatoes for Campbell’s Soup, and hauling vegetables to the Trenton, NJ farmer’s market until the late 1940’s.

Girl Farmers in the 1940s

1950s

While expansion continued, the latest technology was embraced in order to continually produce high quality products. Furthermore, the latest soil conservation methods were practiced to protect the soil and land. Milking 80 cows and farming over 200 acres, Norman’s son, Robert and his wife, Sarah bought the farm and installed a state-of-the-art milking parlor in 1958. They continued expansion and profound innovation.

The Fulper Farm Men

1960

Today, Robert’s forward-thinking sons, Robert II and Fred Fulper own and manage the farm. Producing wholesome, quality products in an environmentally-friendly way is still a major focus for the brothers. They continue to pave the way for “greener” dairy farm practices, including our solar renewable energy system, soil conservation methods, and nutrient recycling plans.
