Oxen Hill Farm is a multi-generational, family-owned and operated USDA Certified Organic vegetable and flower farm with deep roots in Connecticut. The Suffield property has belonged to the Griffin family since the mid-1800s, tracing back to ancestors who emigrated from Northern Ireland. The East Granby parcel, used for most crop production, sits on land originally granted by the King of England in 1647—making the farm a living piece of colonial and agricultural history. Today, the 11th generation of the Griffin family carries forward this legacy with a commitment to sustainability, health, and community.

Originally launched as a CSA-focused operation in 2009, Oxen Hill Farm quickly became known for its diverse organic vegetable shares and vibrant, pick-your-own flower fields. The farm’s name pays tribute to “Spike and Tony,” two beloved oxen who once lived on the Suffield property, symbolizing strength, heritage, and the land’s enduring character. Each season, CSA members receive highly customizable shares and gain access to fields of fresh herbs and cherry tomatoes, strengthening the direct connection between farmer and consumer. Through these relationships, Oxen Hill not only feeds but nurtures a regional community of health-conscious families.

Their organic farming practices go well beyond USDA requirements. Every year, they undergo detailed inspections, record-keeping, and audits through Baystate Organic Certifiers. Now in their 14th year of certification and 17th year of organic management, the team at Oxen Hill stands as a model for transparency and ecological stewardship. More than a business, the farm is a lifestyle—one rooted in integrity, education, and shared abundance.
