Green Acres Turf Farm

What Green Acres Turf Farm does

Green Acres Turf Farm, LLC is a family-owned and operated warm-season turfgrass producer based at 14058 Savannah Highway in Furman, South Carolina. The farm cultivates and sells a portfolio of patented and trademarked Bermudagrass, Zoysia, St. Augustine, Centipede, and Paspalum varieties — including Celebration Bermudagrass, Palmetto St. Augustine, EMPIRE Zoysia, Zeon Zoysia, NorthBridge Bermudagrass, Cobalt St. Augustine, TifBlair Centipede, and Tifway 419 Bermuda — under licensing arrangements with Sod Solutions and the University of Georgia. Products are sold in sod rolls or pallets with delivery across the South Carolina Lowcountry and Georgia Coastline.

The business operates two distinct go-to-market motions. Residential homeowners transact through a 24/7 self-serve online storefront with instant quoting. Professional buyers — golf courses, sports facilities, commercial landscaping, and residential developments — order through a dedicated phone-based sales channel (877-987-1211) with custom pricing across South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and North Carolina. Pricing is unit-based on volume ordered, with delivery sold as a separate line. Revenue derives from one-time product sales and delivery services, with no subscription, recurring, or licensing revenue to the company itself beyond its inbound grower agreements.

The company is structured as a South Carolina LLC with 1-10 employees, no disclosed external investors or parent company, and no funding history. Its competitive positioning rests on licensed proprietary genetics, a regional delivery footprint optimized for the perishable nature of cut sod, content-driven SEO and educational resources, and operational experience described as multi-generational within the family ownership group. No public revenue, headcount growth, or financial benchmarks are disclosed.
