Welcome to Wilder Brook Farm, a flower and vegetable farm in western Massachusetts. Our 2019 season is underway!<br />
<br />
This farm high on a hill in Charlemont, Massachusetts, was first settled in 1820. We started our sustainable CSA farm here in 1995. CSA stands for “community-supported agriculture”—and Wilder Brook Farm is a vibrant community. Tuesday pickups are a time to catch up with neighbors as well as gather produce. John and Kate are welcoming hosts.<br />

We are currently closed to new share holders, but if you are interested in getting on our wait list, please <a href="http://wilderbrookfarm.blogspot.com/p/contact-us.html" target="_blank">contact us</a>. Each week’s offering ALWAYS includes fresh flowers from Kate’s spectacular garden. We count 92 varieties of annuals. (We have lost count of the perennials!)<br />

<br />
Members are encouraged to wander through the rows of herbs to gather parsley, dill, basil, cilantro, tarragon, thyme, and sage.<br />

<br />
We sell our own eggs and maple syrup, as well as goat cheese from our neighbors. And we take orders for blueberries from <a href="http://www.bensonplace.org/" target="_blank">the Benson Place</a> in season. <br />
<br />
Wilder Brook Farm involves its members by sponsoring pot-luck suppers several times during the growing season (roughly mid-June to mid-October). We also ask our members to work for a few hours each season on the farm. Work shifts vary according to the schedule and the abilities of the participant. <br />
