In early spring of 2021, we packed up and moved our farm operation to Central Massachusetts where we grew up. We farm in Oxford, Massachusetts up on Federal Hill Rd on the land formerly operated by Long Field Flower Farm. We are excited to be apart of the already robust local agriculture scene in Central Mass!
Prior to 2021, Crown & Roots Farm was located on the North of Boston in beautiful Beverly, Massachusetts for two season. We farmed on part of the historic Moraine Farm off of Cabot Street on 1A which is just a few minutes off of 128. We will certainly miss the area but enjoy being back home in the Worcester area where we are originally from.
In 2022, in addition to our Oxford farm, we began leasing the two greenhouses at Dresser Hill Farm in Charlton formerly operated by Abundance Family Farm. This will give us the opportunity to grow vegetables for our community!

So..why did you start a farm?
Together, we believe a thriving local food system is a staple of a thriving community. We want to be a part of and help to continue to build our already strong New England local agriculture scene to help shape food culture in Massachusetts and beyond with honest sustainably grown food.
