Our Story

In The Beginning

Andrew and mary purchased the farm form Manny and Ethel Bloomberg in 1979. At the time it was planted with raspberriesthat had grown into a solid mass. We spent several seasons creating rows, pickling raspberries in the early morning and selling them to wholesale to Idywilde Farm in Acton. Eventually, we created Raspberry U-Pic.

Over the years we raised chickens and ducks for eggs, and kept a few goats as pets. Tyler, our son set up a small roadside stand and began selling vegetables . This led us to get serious about how to best use the land. We set a seasonal farm stand, started making small batch artisanal jams, jellies and pickles. We opened up the farm to a U-Pick CSA in 2012.
