Nestled along the scenic Kickemuit River in Warren, Rhode Island, Frerichs Farm has been a beloved family-owned destination for gardeners and nature lovers since 1986. What began as a humble nursery has flourished into a seasonal sanctuary for those seeking vibrant blooms, expert gardening guidance, and a joyful sense of community. Operated with care by David and Barbara Frerichs, the farm now spans 11 greenhouses bursting with lovingly grown annuals, perennials, and vegetables, carefully tended to during the colder months in preparation for a grand spring reopening each April.
Frerichs Farm is perhaps best known for its festive fall transformations. Each Columbus Day weekend, the farm hosts the Southern New England Giant Pumpkin Grower’s Annual Weigh-Off—an event that draws families from across the region. Other seasonal delights include pumpkin coach rides, whimsical attractions like Windy River Junction, and an abundance of locally grown autumn décor. As winter approaches, David turns his attention to crafting one-of-a-kind holiday pieces, while Barbara fills The Barn Gift Shop and upstairs Loft with ornaments, home goods, and cozy seasonal treasures.
But Frerichs Farm is more than a nursery or farm stand—it is a space of learning, connection, and inspiration. Through their educational resources and their welcoming “Ask Farmer Dave” outreach, the Frerichs have cultivated a place where gardeners of all levels feel supported and inspired. With bees buzzing in the background and the scent of fresh soil and blooms in the air, Frerichs Farm continues to offer not just plants and produce, but a warm invitation to slow down and savor the rhythm of the seasons.
