About US

Ben Moyer grew up helping his family on the farm growing and selling produce and fall mums and pumpkins, starting with 1800 mums. In 2006, Ben took over the retail business from his parents, and decided to concentrate on the fall products only, therefore becoming Moyers Mum Farm. In 2010, Ben married Tonya and together they have expanded the business to over 33,000 mums per year plus 8 acres of pumpkins, gourds, indian corn, and all things for fall decorating, selling all these products at their retail stand that was open from August to October, with the help of their children Annie and Kaleb.

After much thought, prayer and planning, Ben and Tonya have decided to step back from the retail stand and concentrate on the wholesale only of mums. With the expansion of their Poultry Farm, this cut back will be much more manageable. The retail stand will continue to operate at the same location, 823 Ono Road, Jonestown, PA 17038, but now under new management. Please continue to support them for all your fall decorating needs.

Ben and Tonya wish to thank everyone for all the support and business over the past years. That support has brought them to where they are today and they are very grateful.

They look forward to continuing their wholesale business, which includes fund-raising events, with all their great wholesale customers, so please give Ben a call.

Mums the word.

We then organize them into the order they will be planted making it easy for placement in the fields which also helps at harvest time when we need certain colors for certain orders.

Each mum cutting get’s planted into it’s own pot with a tag describing it’s color. Our son Kaleb is keeping a watchful eye to make sure everything gets in the pot correctly.

The mum then gets placed on the mum field where it will grow all summer till harvest time in Fall. Our Daughter Annie loves to be out in the fields keeping everything lined up and placed right where it needs to be.

Once the mum pots are placed in the fields they are then connected to the watering system where they will receive the nutrients and water they need to survive while they grow.

We plant an assortment of pot sizes. Our most popular is our 8inch but we do also offer 9inch, 10inch Hanging baskets, 14inch deck planters a 14inch tri-color deck planter, a 21inch whiskey barrel and our largest pot size is our 30inch planter.

Once everything is placed in the fields we then go through on a daily basis to make sure everything is growing the way it should be and that the plant is getting the nutrients and water it needs to survive though the irrigation system.

To say Moyers Mum Farm likes to grow mums is probably an understatement. When Ben first started growing them, he grew about 1800. After realizing that there was a real need for a good quality product the decision to increase wasn’t a hard one to make. After selling out year after year Ben and Tonya knew they needed to step up their game, so they increased to 25,000. They thought that was a good number to be at but turns out they were proven wrong again. So after yet another sold out year they are making the jump to increase to 38,000 mums. Their goal would be to plant 50,000 (well if you ask Ben he would want to reach 100,000 but that’s a little overwhelming to Tonya) but with the support from all of you, it might just be possible.

So here’s how it all work. When August comes around it’s time to start thinking of purchasing your mums for your retail location. Our early varieties bloom by mid August already. These are great varieties to start with on your stand to begin showing your costumers that you are thinking of mums and getting started with the season. When placing an order, you will need to pick up a minimum of 100 pots, this can be an assortment of pots sizes if you wish (for example you can get 90-8inch mums and 10-10inch hanging baskets) or if you simply want to get a full order of just one pot size that is fine to but the minimum amount is 100 pots per pick up. We recommend starting out with a selection of the 8inch, then as the season progressed, branch out into the other sizes including the deck planters we have available. You will need to place your order at least 48 hours (2 days) in advance. Pick up is also only by appointment Monday-Friday. This will allow us to make sure we have an assortment of colors for you as well as reserving your spot on the schedule. We also work with you on your orders as far as color selection. We always try to give an assortment of colors per order but if you start to see you have a lot of one certain color still remaining, say the reds, then when you place your next order simple let us know that and we will go easy on reds so you will once again have a good assortment of colors for your customers to choose from. When you arrive at the farm we will have your mums pulled and ready on our mum wagons set in our staging area. This is our way of keeping orders correct since we often have several different orders going out the same day/time so when you arrive either Ben or myself (Tonya) will be there to assist you and make sure you are picking up the correct mums for your order.

For every order, we customize and individually pick mums from our fields creating a balance of mixed colors. The wagons are then staged in our waiting area ready for pick up.
