About
Fulton Family Farms is a family owned farming and orchard operation which started in the late 1970's, near Dayton, Oregon. Floyd Fulton purchased 100 acres at the peak of the 1970's oil crisis and inflation boom, and migrated his family to a more agrarian lifestyle. Since then, the Fulton's have purchased additional farmland, and have produced commodity crops for decades; more recently, the Fultons have grown and produced grass-fed beef, tree fruits, berries, and vegetables for direct-to-the-consumer marketing.
Chris Fulton, Floyd's son, has been involved with the farmer's market scene in the Portland area as well as on the northern coast of Oregon for multiple years, working as an employee of other farms. Chris is now the primary family member representing the family's farm, and offering the Fulton's products to the consumer at markets.
