Overview
Third-generation CSA and market farm growing no-spray vegetables, grains, mushrooms, maple syrup, and eggs in Willington, CT.
Willow Valley Farm is a third-generation family farm spanning 64 acres of fields and woodland along the Fenton River in Willington, CT. Spencer Cartabiano and Jackie Kulig now run the farm, which has been in the family since the 1950s. The farm grows a variety of no-spray vegetables along with grains, hay, straw, mushrooms, maple syrup, and eggs. It offers a seasonal CSA program running 18 weeks from late May through late September, with weekly member pickups at the farm. Full and half shares are available, and subsidized shares are offered through a Food for Friends program. A farm stand, open seasonally on weekends, sells surplus produce to the public. Learn more on their About Page.
Willow Valley Farm grows all produce using sustainable methods and has taken the CT NOFA Farmer's Pledge. The farm avoids synthetic fertilizers by maintaining active soil life through regular applications of compost and mulch, including rye straw it grows itself, wood chips, paper, and cover crops. Natural pest controls such as garlic spray are used; the farm does not use GMOs, pesticides, or black plastic mulch. Wild plants are maintained along field edges to support pollinators and beneficial insects throughout the season. The farm follows FDA and USDA Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) guidelines to reduce the risk of microbial contamination of its fruits and vegetables.
