At Hight Family Farms, we are proud to carry on a rich tradition of quality farming that spans four generations. Established in 1912, our family-owned operation has deep roots in the agricultural community, and we are passionate about what we do.
​
Led by Mike Hight and his son David Hight, our family works tirelessly to ensure that our farm operates smoothly and efficiently. With their extensive experience and expertise, Mike and David make all the crucial decisions that shape our day-to-day operations. Aimee, another valued member of our family operation, manages the office, accounting, field operations, and payroll, keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

Embracing Change
Over the years, we have witnessed remarkable changes in farming practices. We have moved from the days of working alongside mules to embracing modern technologies and machinery. However, while our methods have evolved, our commitment to excellence and the craft of farming remains unwavering.
Cultivating Excellence
At Hight Family Farms, we specialize in growing tobacco, which serves as our main cash crop. We take great pride in producing high-quality tobacco that meets the standards set by industry leaders such as RJ Reynolds, Universal Leaf North America, US Tobacco Coop, and JTI. Additionally, we cultivate peppers as our second important crop, catering to the diverse needs of our customers.
Pioneering Sustainable Farming
What sets us apart from our competitors is our unwavering dedication to our craft. We constantly strive to improve our farming practices and stay informed about the latest advancements in the industry. Our genuine concern for the well-being of our land, crops, and community drives us to be at the forefront of sustainable farming practices.
