In 2016, Matt and Kate Griffin and their family embarked on an ambitious journey when they purchased an old, run-down former chicken farm in Hooksett, New Hampshire. Their vision was clear: restore the forgotten property and bring farm-fresh products directly to their local community. What began as a dilapidated site has slowly transformed into a working farm that embodies their dedication to farm-to-table freshness.
While getting the farm up and running remains a work in progress, the Griffins have made substantial gains toward their goal. Today, Forgotten Farm is home to over 90 chickens, 11 goats, a thriving vegetable garden, and young fruit trees that promise future harvests. They have also added a greenhouse to extend their growing capabilities and now sell started pullets during the early to mid-summer months alongside their fresh chicken eggs and seasonal vegetables.
Beyond simply growing and selling farm products, the Griffin family has created a place where the community can connect with agriculture. They offer farm tours, host seasonal events, and provide unique experiences like photography sessions with their animals. Their farm camp program teaches children aged 5-12 about personal responsibility and environmental stewardship while caring for animals and creating farm-related crafts and foods. As Matt and Kate and their children look to the future, they continue planning to expand their offerings, determined to grow both their farm and the variety of activities available for their customers to enjoy.
