Berry Hill Farm
Berry Hill Farm grows a diverse variety of vegetables in harmony with natural systems and rhythms of our ecosystem. No herbicides are used. Only organic insect sprays that are non toxic to humans are used very sparingly when necessary.

Our guiding principles teach us to nurture the soil biology in ways that sequester carbon, preserve soil nutrition and cultivate plants that will produce delicious fruits and veggies that are deeply nutritious. We have found great fulfillment in bringing wholesome food to wellness minded people who appreciate it. 

Through the use of greenhouses, winter covers and storage facilities we are able to keep fresh produce available twelve months of the year. Our new farm store sells products from our farm, as well as products from several other surrounding farms.
