hi everyone!!! thanks for 'liking' us! this is the place to see what we're up to on the farm, and as a family! soon enough, we will have our egg and produce stand set up, and missy is hoping to get licensed to sell jams, pickles, and whatnot this year.
thanks for coming along for the ride! if you know a market or restaurant looking to form relationships (in ma), send them our way...we will try our best to grow anything requested, and have a great line up of non-gmo, and heirloom varieties on tap already!
