About Us

Welcome Home

The Forbes Farms neighborhood once was a working farm in the 1940s and its last harvest was in the 1990s. The vision was to encourage a variety of home styles and sizes to accommodate the different needs and demands of a diverse group of residents including empty nesters, young singles and couples, and everyone in between. 

The development plans have evolved over time to suit customer demands, but sensitivity to the land, the community and the Forbes family name have always been guiding principles. The commitment and passion of Jay and David, along with the active involvement of our residents will continue to ensure that Forbes Farms remains the finest neighborhood in Hammond.
