Ritter Farms is best known for its great-tasting Grainger County Tomatoes.

The Ritters regularly host agritourism events such as live country and bluegrass concerts and seasonal festivals on the farm.

The Ritter family has been involved in farming, especially growing tomatoes since the early 1970's. Ritter Farms is a second-generation family farm owned and operated by Stanley and Tonya Ritter. In addition to those great-tasting Grainger County tomatoes, the Ritters grow a variety of garden vegetables which can be purchased as they're brought out of the field at the Big Red Barn on Hwy 11W between Bean Station and Rutledge, Tennessee.

Designated as a Century Farm, the Renfro Cattle Farm holds clues to the history and heritage of the Appalachian region.

Directly affected by post-war railroad construction, the Renfro Cattle Farm details the impact of modern transportation on the fortunes of a typical family farmer in East Tennessee. The Renfro farm, established by John and Jane Renfro in 1824, stands two and a half miles east of Blaine. John and Jane initially possessed 150 acres to which they added 251 acres. The Renfros raised nine children and according to the family, "the farm sustained a large family, even with the crude methods of the time." The farm has been passed down through generations and now consists of 290 acres where hay, tobacco, and beef cattle are produced.
