Powisset Farm has a long history of agricultural enterprises, from a dairy farm many years ago, to Amelia Peabody's legendary farm, famous for its breed stock of Hereford cattle and Yorkshire pigs. Many visitors remember fondly the glowing green pastures dotted with cattle and framed by beautiful barns.

Today, our farm is better known for its CSA (community supported agriculture) operation. In 2007, we began a CSA operation with 100 shares, and are currently growing for 350 Summer CSA members and 100 Winter CSA members. By purchasing a share at Powisset Farm, CSA members help to create community around our farm and their commitment to locally grown produce. They receive vegetables each week throughout the growing season, and participate in our pick-your-own crops as well, like fruits, flowers, and herbs.

We also host an on-site Farm Stand three days per week during the summer and fall, so that non-shareholders have access to Powisset produce.

About our farming practices: We follow the organic standards but are not certified organic. This means we do not use GMO seeds or chemical fertilizers; and when needed to protect crops from pests or diseases, we only apply organic pesticides or fungicides. We seek to care for our soils, create healthy habitat for pollinators, and protect the air and water in our community.
