 Welcome to Red Hen Farm!
We are a diversified, family farm located in Western
Massachusetts.
Red
Hen Farm started with a simple goal in mind. We wanted to
produce as much of our own food as possible.
This was no small feat for former suburbanites!
Growing up in a town of
manicured lawns, with only one agreeable cat for livestock,
and not a single garden around for miles, we were a bit
lacking in the knowledge and experience department.
With a little bit of grit and a
lot of help and advice, we've learned many lessons on our
way to that goal.
Happily, and a bit
surprisingly, we've also met with some success.
 We've shared many meals made only from foods
produced right here at Red Hen Farm!
Our freezers are stocked with
our own chicken, turkey and lamb. The pantry shelves are
lined with strawberry, raspberry and blueberry jam, all from
berries grown right here. We wake to breakfasts of freshly
collected eggs (as of this writing, we still import the
coffee) and this year plan to expand our operations to add
Red Hen Farm bacon to the list! We press our own cider in
the fall, boil our own maple syrup in the spring and we are
looking forward to our own honey!
It's nearly ten years in, here at Red Hen Farm, and we are
now raising enough food to share!
Our fresh, local turkey, chicken and lamb are available for
sale at the farm.
 Some of our other products include organic eggs from our
pasture-raised flock of happy hens, organically grown
blueberries and raspberries, fresh shiitake mushrooms and
green-spun yarn from our flock of Merino sheep.
To us, a day spent on Red Hen Farm is a day well spent! We
invite you to come on out to the farm, have a look around
and visit with our friendly animals!
