Andrews Farm

Andrews Farm produces mixed organic vegetables year-round on former dairy pasturelands. Though the vegetable operation is in its infancy, the land has been in the family for generations. Visitors will learn about the organic, minimum-tillage, and season extension practices employed in the 1-acre market garden; tour the newly established apple orchard; and envision plans for expansion into other areas of the scenic 70-acre property. Produce samples and refreshments will be provided.
