McLean Farms

About the Farm

Nestled in the rural village of Cobalt, Connecticut, McLean Hill Farm & Gardens carries the legacy of four generations who have lovingly called this farm home. Owned and operated since 2009 by Buddy McLean, the farm's traditions are deeply interwoven with the East Hampton community. Buddy, who was raised on the land, has continued the family’s commitment to making the farm a welcoming space for the community to gather, connect, and nourish body and soul.

With a strong emphasis on sustainability, McLean Hill Farm & Gardens employs organic growing practices to cultivate fresh, locally sourced produce through their popular CSA program. Their mission revolves around strengthening community ties, fostering environmental stewardship, and providing a consistent and healthy food source to neighbors. Each week, customers receive vibrant, seasonal vegetables alongside updates and personal touches from Buddy himself.

Beyond produce, McLean Hill Farm & Gardens is a hub of activity and celebration. The farm hosts seasonal events, farm-to-table dinners, photo shoots, yoga sessions, and educational tours designed to bring people closer to the rhythms of agricultural life. Friendly, rooted in tradition, and forward-thinking in their environmental philosophy, the McLean family maintains a heartfelt vision: to be the kind of farm that your family returns to, again and again.
