Lapsley Orchard sits on land steeped in history, with roots tracing back to colonial America. First cultivated by Israel Putnam in 1750, the acreage was originally used for stock raising and fruit growing. Over the centuries, it has remained a vital part of the community's agricultural fabric, consistently yielding food to nourish local families. Today, its legacy is preserved through the care and commitment of those who continue to farm its 200 acres.

At its core, Lapsley Orchard is about more than just produce—it's about sustaining a way of life. The present-day farm reflects the essence of a classic New England operation, offering a wide selection of fruits and vegetables grown right on site. The retail stand serves as a central point where freshness, health, and local pride come together to provide high-quality items straight from the fields.

This family-operated farm takes genuine pride in every harvest, celebrating not only the seasonal bounty but also the timeless values of community and stewardship of the land. Through sustainable practices and a love of agriculture, Lapsley Orchard continues to uphold a heritage that feeds both body and spirit in Pomfret Center and beyond.
