The time has come for us to close our beloved "family farm".
We want to thank you for visiting us at farmers' markets over the years as well as coming here to the farm for our many pick-your-own crops, beautiful annual flowers, delicious corn and
early greenhouse tomatoes!
Its been our pleasure to grow them for you!
Thank you to everyone who came out to what was our last season.
"Grandad and Nana" Brown bought the farm just after the turn of the century in the early 1900s. They opened the fields to the public for
"Pick Your Own" strawberries during the depression. They had nine children and their eighth child, Noel followed in his father's footsteps, becoming the next "Farmer Brown" as well as being a full time fireman here in Agawam.
Noel and Dorothy had seven children, many hands were needed to keep up with the growing farm! Noel grew the PYO operation to include Blueberries, Raspberries, Apples, Tomatoes, Peppers, and more, as well as greenhouses filled with annual flowers and tomatoes.
The "FARM" has a heartbeat of its own. Many local kids grew up working here. They come back now bringing their kids to pick strawberries like they did "back in the day".
Noel's grandchildren, the "fourth generation" all grew up working with their grandfather and
Uncle Mark in the fields, at the stand
and going to farmers' markets.
Now their little ones, our "fifth generation" of Browns, play and love their time here on the Farm.
Looks like turkeys on the hill while strawberries are still under the cover of straw.
