Maple Shade Farm

Maple Shade Farm is a multi-generational family farm that has been in the MacGregor family since 1915. Peter and Jessica MacGregor raise ABGA-registered Boer Goats, registered Katahdin Sheep, Welsh Harlequin Ducks, Magpie Ducks, and a flock of mixed-breed laying hens. The farm offers goats and sheep for sale, fertilized hatching eggs, and chicks each spring. Laying hens at Maple Shade Farm are affectionately called "Shady Chickens," a mixed flock that produces brown, green, and blue eggs in medium to large sizes. Peter holds a degree from UMass Stockbridge in General Horticulture and manages a local feed store, bringing deep knowledge of livestock nutrition to the operation.
