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