Aliabaad is located on 4040 Mills Road in historic Sharpsburg,<br />
Maryland only 25 minutes west of Frederick and a short drive south<br />
of the Hagerstown Premium Outlets.<br />
In pursuit of a childhood dream, the Aliabaad Farm was<br />
established May 7, 2007. Through gradual and sustainable growth<br />
Aliabaad Farm is slowly expanding and continuing to offer quality<br />
items as well as meeting the growing demand for fresher and tastier<br />
produce.<br />
“We are taking small steps to expand our product offerings to<br />
people who are interested in fresh and organic products. I hope<br />
by taking the approach of quality first and quantity second we<br />
can continue to expand our circle of friends and customers while<br />
maintaining a high degree of quality,” says Ali Mohadjer, owner<br />
and operator.<br />
This year will be the fifth year of our farming; we are pleased to be<br />
ranked as one of the top quality growers in the state of Maryland<br />
(Washington County). Our goal is to continue our efforts in producing<br />
high quality products during the entire year by planting various<br />
seasonal vegetables both in the field and in our green houses.<br />
The 2013 Farm of the Year<br />
winner,Ali Mohadjer, was<br />
pleased to accept his plaque<br />
which he will now be able<br />
to display at Aliabaad Farm.<br />
