Cupola Hollow Farm—also known as Dunai Farm—is a fourth-generation family farm nestled in the preserved farmland of West Suffield, Connecticut. Its story begins in the early 1900s when Lucaz and Celia Dunai, Polish immigrants, first acquired the land. With a deep love for the soil of the Connecticut River Valley, Lucaz expanded the dairy farm into a thriving operation that also grew premium tobacco. This love for the land was passed on through generations, shaping the farm into a cornerstone of the local agricultural community.

After the dairy operation ceased in the late 1970s due to declining milk prices, Lucaz’s daughters, Donna and Kathy, stepped in to preserve the family legacy. They began modestly—converting an old garage into a market stand—and over the decades, their vision and dedication transformed the farm into a multifaceted enterprise. In 2007, aided by a state farm reinvestment grant, they built a commercial kitchen and retail store. By 2009, the family launched a CSA to expand community access to their homegrown produce and artisan goods.

Today, Kathy Dunai and her daughters Amanda and Ashley carry the torch with pride. Cupola Hollow Farm offers an array of handcrafted, small-batch products—from jams and pickles to baked goods and soaps—all made with care and tradition. The farm remains an active participant in regional farmers markets and community events, and its doors are always open to those seeking a taste of Connecticut’s agricultural heritage. With its rolling 59 acres and enduring spirit, Cupola Hollow is more than a farm—it’s a living legacy.
