Tuckaway Farm

Tuckaway Farm Growing healthy soil, food & community in Seacoast NH. Please call or email for an introduction to our farm.

Tuckaway Farm is a three generation family farm "tucked away" along the Oyster River, just 2 miles from UNH. We have farmed organically for over 50 years, growing vegetables, small fruits, hay, blueberries, mushrooms, grains and oilseed crops. We use draft horse power and no/low-till practices where possible, and rotationally graze our livestock and poultry. We currently operate a credit-system CS

A and Bread Club, and sell to area restaurants, markets, and school districts. We are deeply engaged in open source research and development through farmhack.net, a collaborative community for resilient agriculture. Our ongoing mission at Tuckaway is to support a regenerative energy and food system by providing diverse agricultural products and by practicing agriculture that builds soil, habitat, and community.

Blueberries are coming in nicely 🫐🎉 The weigh & pay station is set up and best picking right now is in the longer section of bushes as you walk towards the community gardens.

Feel free to DM if you haven’t picked with us before - we are, after all, “tucked away” and it’s helpful to get oriented.

50/50 picking (take half, leave half) is a great option if you enjoy spending time in the berries but please be in touch with me by DM or text 603-988-5065 if you have not done this with us before ❤️

And please note - You’ll want socks and closed shoes bc there is some poison ivy in that farther section!

This Juneteenth, and every day, support black farmers like Akilah Campbell of Zuri Wingi - "Beautiful Abundance"

Black farmers own less than 2% of the farm land in our nation, a steep decline from 100 years ago; in 1920 nearly 1 million black farmers owned 14% of all the farm land in the U.S. but systemic discrimination, land displacement, and intentional exclusion from federal programs has led to the loss of over 14 million acres of land. meanwhile, black communities are disproportionately impacted by illnesses related to lack of food access and healthy natural ecosystems.

American farming practices are deeply intertwined with African wisdom, and farms like Zuri Wingi [beautiful abundance] reclaim and celebrate this history & heritage, while supporting local food systems through access, education and community.

Support Zuri Wingi - "Beautiful Abundance";

1. Attend an upcoming community volunteer day [next one is tomorrow, 6/20, 9-12am Carrie Davis in Lee, NH]

���2. Donate to the Tuckaway Food Common using the link in our bio.

���3. Attend one of Akilah’s sessions at Farm-a-Q on Sunday, June 28 Cultivate Tuckaway Farm to learn more!

2:50pm | Zuri Wingi Garden Tour

Dorn will be at UVM on March 18 discussing Building Commons Enabling Infrastructure for Food Sovereignty: Community-Led Examples of Global Knowledge Sharing for Local Production and Autonomy. How can communities build and share an agricultural knowledge commons of tools, data, designs and governance to better adapt their own food, knowledge, and local food production systems? Link in bio for Zoom registration.
🌱
We’re taking these ideas to heart as Tuckaway Farm expands into Tuckaway Food Commons (TFC) - a growing food hub that brings together farms, food, producers, educators, nonprofits, community organizations and neighbors to strengthen a resilient, equitable, and community-centered Seacoast food system.
🌱
Stay tuned for new collaborations, food enterprises, community-led workshops, and ways to engage 🧡

Saving cherry tomato seeds from potted plants that produced well into October. We kept some from the final harvest in a bowl in the kitchen and they almost all stayed sound & flavorful right up to now. I’m drying the seeds on paper towels rather than fermenting, just for simplicity. A family in town offered us the plants last spring, saying they had been growing them out for many years, having been given their first plants from another neighbor. They told Chuck later in the season that their crop had not done well this year, so it’s nice to know we can return the favor by offering back seed 🌱🍅🥰

We’re so grateful to host another broom making workshop with Bryan Cassidy and on Saturday Nov 22, 1-5. This is a fully hands on workshop, and a really wonderful opportunity to slow down, connect with natural materials and new friends. Bryan also has a lovely new book of poetry in the farm store.
