About the Farm

Founded in 1708, Deershorn Farm stands as a testament to agricultural heritage, representing a family owned and operated enterprise that has been providing the freshest produce to the area for over three centuries. This fourth-generation farm has blossomed from its humble beginnings into a thriving 25-acre operation nestled in Lancaster, Massachusetts, where tradition meets innovation in every row of crops.

What sets Deershorn Farm apart is their commitment to advancing agricultural practices while maintaining their dedication to quality. Working alongside experts from UMASS, they pioneered the adoption of Integrated Pest Management, becoming one of the first farms to embrace this approach that keeps crop quality high while minimizing chemical usage. Their farming philosophy centers on using the most advanced farming techniques to eliminate harmful pesticides and reduce chemical usage overall, ensuring that every piece of produce is not only delicious but safe for consumption.

Beyond simply growing exceptional produce, Deershorn Farm has embraced their role as educators and community builders. They work diligently to teach visitors about insect life and fungicides, keeping the passion for farming alive while continuing to improve and offer the best produce around. As proud members of the New England Apple Council, they champion the "Buy Local, Eat Local" movement, bringing their beautiful produce to surrounding communities through farmers markets and their on-farm stand, where visitors can experience firsthand where their food comes from.
