About Us

The Jupiter Farms Residents community’s mission revolves around preserving its unique, rural character while fostering a welcoming environment for both humans and wildlife. This involves balancing the needs of a growing population with the desire to maintain its natural landscapes, including its ecological systems and the ability to raise horses, farm animals, and grow crops, according to the Jupiter Farms Neighborhood Plan adopted by Palm Beach County in 1994.

 

Preserving Rural Character: 

Jupiter Farms residents value their community’s rural atmosphere and seek to maintain it, including the ability to raise horses, farm animals, and grow.

 

Environmental Stewardship:

The community recognizes the importance of its ecological systems, particularly the water table and the Loxahatchee River headwaters, and strives to minimize the impact of development on these areas.

 

Community Engagement:

Jupiter Farms residents actively participate in community events and initiatives that promote community and environmental awareness and conservation.

 

Sustainable Growth:

The community aims to find a balance between accommodating a growing population and preserving its natural environment and way of life.

 

A Welcoming Habitat:

Jupiter Farms aspires to be a community that is a welcoming habitat for both humans and wildlife, including native plants and animals.

JFR holds eight meetings a year for residents so they may better keep informed on various local topics, events, and matters of interest affecting them. The group has also held many free events in the community, such as Movie Nights, the Family Hoedown, Spring Family Fun Day, Candidates Events,  Christmas Tree Sale, and Sporting Clay Shoots.  Then, at the end of the school year, JFR awards scholarships to local graduating seniors.

Although JFR’s Board of Directors are all volunteers and give selflessly of their time and personal resources, none of our events are cheap to produce. We would love to be able to do more for the community, but money is always an issue.  In the past, JFR Boards have asked for yearly contributions from resident families. Since 2015, we have not done that.

However, Jupiter Farms Residents could truly use your help.  Special event insurance, general liability insurance, vendors, scholarships, web hosting, professional services, etc. are all mounting expenses.

Please donate what you can to help us grow a stronger and better-protected community and help us to keep Jupiter Farms, Jupiter Farms.  Year after year, it’s getting more difficult to maintain what we have, so please don’t take it for granted.
