Overview
Multi-generational farm stand and bakery with produce, farm-raised meats, eggs, flowers, and preserves
Spring Brook Farm has operated on the same Littleton land since 1713, when an English deed was conveyed to Captain John Proctor. Ten generations of the Matheson family have farmed its more than 400 acres across two parcels. The farm grows over 200 varieties of vegetables and raises its own beef, feeding the cattle on grain grown on the property. Its year-round farm store carries produce, meats, eggs, greenhouse plants, field flowers, and Blue Ribbon jams and preserves. Baked goods from the farm kitchen include pies, breads, quiches, and pastries. A Freedom Shares program gives customers a CSA-style coupon booklet redeemable for farm goods on their own schedule. Spring Brook Farm also sells at several greater Boston farmers markets each season.
Spring Brook Farm uses Integrated Pest Management (IPM), a science-based approach to identifying and controlling pests with reduced environmental impact. Each week during the growing season, a farm scout coordinates with the University of Massachusetts IPM program to monitor and manage insect activity, a partnership spanning more than twenty years. The farm's stated goal is to maintain clean air, water, and fertile soil as part of a balanced ecosystem. Its land provides habitat for forty endangered plant, animal, and reptile species. Beef cattle are fed grain grown on the farm itself. The farm partners with Carlisle Honey, whose hives are maintained on the property.
