Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Lexington, MA

Waltham

Honors Farm Stand runs out of Gore Street in Waltham, one of the few working farm stands left inside Middlesex County's inner suburbs. No current website or listing confirms what's sold there now.

Woburn

Acacia Grove Honey Farm keeps hives on Salem Court Extension in Woburn, listed among the region's small honey producers. No current product list, hours, or contact details are published online.

Harvard

Westward Orchards in Harvard runs a farm stand and pick-your-own operation through the whole season — strawberries and blueberries opening things up in June, apples and a pumpkin patch carrying through October. The farm also runs a CSA share program for customers who want produce delivered on a schedule rather than picked by hand. Vegetables round out the stand between fruit seasons.

Concord

Silferleaf Farm in Concord grows one crop — certified organic red raspberries — and opens to pickers only during raspberry season, closing the rest of the year. It's a small, single-purpose operation on Strawberry Hill Road, the kind of farm built around doing one thing well rather than stretching into pumpkins, trees, or a corn maze. Call ahead; the season window is short and weather-dependent.

Tewksbury

Nearly 80 years in, Krochmal Farms runs pigs and cattle alongside a large-scale agricultural compost operation, then turns the same ground over to families every fall for a pumpkin patch, corn maze, hayrides, and pony rides. The farm also runs a separate compost and loam yard elsewhere in Tewksbury.

South Natick

Lookout Farm has worked this land in South Natick since 1651, making it one of the oldest continuously farmed properties in Massachusetts. Today it runs a year-round taproom serving farm-to-table barbecue, pick-your-own peaches and apples in season, a corn maze, and a tractor play area for kids. The farm also books weddings and private events and hosts live music and trivia nights on weekends.

Sudbury

Blue Meadow Farm is a full-service equestrian center on 27 acres in Sudbury, offering boarding, lessons, and training rather than produce. The barn holds 24 matted stalls plus indoor and outdoor riding arenas, built in 2011.

Sherborn

Dowse Orchards has grown apples, vegetables, and flowers on the same Sherborn land for 200 years, making it one of Massachusetts's certified Century Farms. The roadside stand, running for more than 60 years, stocks over 20 apple varieties — McIntosh, Cortland, and Macoun among the favorites — plus fresh-pressed cider, maple syrup, and preserves. Spring greenhouses supply perennials and flowers; December brings cut-your-own Christmas trees. Open Monday through Saturday, 9am to 6pm.

Dracut

Farmer Dave's runs a CSA out of its Dracut farm stand, offering Spring, Vegetable, Fruit, Late Fall, Deep Winter, and Bakery shares alongside raw honey and scratch-made baked goods sold at retail. A second stand operates in nearby Tewksbury. The Dracut location is open daily, and the farm office handles CSA questions Monday through Friday, 9am to 6pm.

Sherborn

Sherborn has kept more open land than most Middlesex County towns this close to Boston, and Spence Hill Farm on Coolidge Street is one of the properties holding that line. Beyond its agritourism listing, nothing further about the farm has surfaced publicly.

Sherborn

Sunshine Farm in Sherborn runs pick-your-own through the whole growing season — strawberries in June, blueberries in July, peaches trailing behind, apples from September into November. Blueberry picking currently runs daily from 9 a.m. until the rows are picked clean, sometimes well before noon. A farm store and bakery sit on site, and ice cream service starts up each fall, running noon to 8 p.m. daily.

Littleton

Pickard Farm in Littleton is a fall-only pumpkin operation — patch, farm store, and pick-your-own, open weekends 10 to 6 and weekday afternoons 3 to 5 through September and October. Parking is limited, so weekday visits beat weekend crowds if the schedule allows. Outside pumpkin season, the farm stays quiet.

North Andover

K&M Farm sits on Waverly Road in North Andover, listed among the area's small agritourism stops. No current website, hours, or product details are published — worth a call before visiting.

Canton

Pakeen Farm in Canton has been in the same family since 1899, and 150 of its acres are permanently protected under a 1994 conservation restriction with the Trustees of Reservations. The farm added Christmas trees in 1993, a CSA in 2009, and a fall harvest season — pumpkins, apples, hot cider, mini donuts — starting in 2012. It's a working farm first; the retail side grew up around it slowly, one decade at a time.

Dracut

Brox Farm sits on Broadway Road in Dracut, a Merrimack Valley town on the New Hampshire border. No hours or product details are posted anywhere public, so a phone call ahead is the safer plan than a drive-by visit.

Middleton

Working since 1695, making it one of the oldest farms in the country, Richardson's still milks its own cows and turns that milk into ice cream made on site. The Middleton property adds a dining room, outdoor patio, pick-your-own seasonal crops, and an adjacent mini golf and driving range.

Sherborn

Kidstopia Blueberry Farm is on Western Avenue in Sherborn, a MetroWest town that still keeps a few working blueberry fields west of the Charles River. No current website or listing confirms this season's picking hours.

Stow

Carver Hill Orchard grows blueberries, peaches, and apples on Brookside Avenue in Stow, with cider donuts drawing as much of a following as the fruit itself. It's open Tuesday through Sunday during the summer season, 9am to 5pm, with picking hours shifting as each crop comes ready. Call ahead for what's currently ripe before making the drive.

Stow

Known locally as Derby Ridge Farm, this fifth-generation Stow orchard grows more than 30 varieties of apples plus peaches and pears across 75-plus acres, and presses its own unpasteurized cider. Pumpkins and Christmas trees fill out the fall and winter seasons, with honey and jam stocked at the farm stand.

Stow

A four-season, certified-organic vegetable and flower farm in Stow working 3 to 4 of its 20 acres, with the rest kept as conservation land. Elena Coleman and Karl Goethert sell through a year-round farm stand, CSA, farmers markets, and wholesale, and welcome visitors to a pick-your-own flower garden and public trail.

Stow

Applefield Farm started in 1981 when Steve and Kirsten Mong took over a small apple orchard on Great Road; four decades later it's a three-season vegetable operation supplying its own farmstand along with local restaurants and retailers. The stand runs mid-April through October 31, with produce grown on-site rather than trucked in. Hours shift by season — call ahead before a special trip.

Stow

Honeypot Hill Orchard is on Sudbury Road in Stow, in the apple country that runs through Bolton and Harvard along Route 117. The orchard's own website returned no content, and no independent listing confirms current hours or varieties.

Millis

A mixed pick-your-own operation in Millis growing blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries on land farmed since 1693. The 64-acre property doubles as a working sheep farm and partners with community fridges and mutual-aid networks to move food into the local food system.

North Andover

North Andover's Merrimack Valley still holds pockets of open farmland between its suburban subdivisions, and Leonhard & Eldred Farm on Dale Street is one of them. It's listed as agritourism; call ahead to confirm what's open before visiting, since no hours are posted publicly.

North Andover

Barker's Farm Stand operates on Osgood Street in North Andover, listed as a seasonal farm stand and agritourism stop. Hours and current offerings aren't published online, so it's worth calling ahead or checking in person.

Topsfield

Connemara House Farm has grown apples, peaches, and Asian pears across 1,200 trees on 36 acres since 1981, on land that was once part of a dairy operation and now carries an Irish name honoring the family's farming heritage. Pick-your-own runs through the fall on stone-walled grounds that also host weddings and corporate events. The orchard and the event venue share the same acreage, not two separate operations.

Topsfield

Natural Way Farm is a small artisan operation on Hill Street in Topsfield, open by appointment for U-pick blueberries and a shop stocked with honey, eggs, and vegetables like arugula, Chinese greens, kale, and hot peppers. It's one of several working farms still active in Topsfield's agricultural core.

Norfolk

Jane and Paul's Farm has worked the same 110 acres on Fruit Street since the early 1700s, first under the Fales and Day families and now run by descendants who still raise chickens, rabbits, and goats alongside the crops. Summer brings pick-your-own strawberries and blueberries; corn, tomatoes, and peppers fill the stand through the season. Fall turns the place into an apple-picking, hayride, and corn-maze destination. Open daily, 9am to 5pm.

Tyngsboro

The Colony occupies land in Tyngsboro that the Thompson family farmed in the early 1700s, though today it houses Carlisle Honey, New England Beekeeping Supplies, and Honeybound Meadery rather than row crops. The business manages more than 1,000 hives, sells bee packages and beekeeping equipment to hobbyists, bottles raw unfiltered honey by variety, and crafts mead from its own harvest. It moved into its current facility in 2017.

Holliston

Highland Farm is on Highland Street in Holliston, a MetroWest town that still keeps working farmland between its ponds and wetlands. No current website or listing confirms what's grown or sold there now.

Haverhill

Rogers Spring Hill Farm has grown strawberries on Neck Road in Haverhill since 1902, running a pick-your-own patch each June alongside what's now a full garden center. The picking side stays low-key — no corn maze, no festival midway, just rows of berries and a fair price per quart. The strawberry window is short, so call before making the drive once June arrives.

Boxford

Ingaldsby Farm is on Washington Street in Boxford, in the Essex County farmland bordering Georgetown-Rowley State Forest. No current website or listing confirms what the farm grows or sells.

Haverhill

Crescent Farm on Willow Avenue mixes a working farmstand with an anaerobic digester that turns food waste into more than 8,000 megawatt-hours of renewable energy a year, credited back to Haverhill's schools and public buildings through net metering. Visitors come for the ice cream, farm animals, spring and summer tours, fall pumpkin picking, hayrides, and a corn maze. It's agritourism built on top of a genuine energy project.

Dunstable

McLoon Farms has grown organic strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries at the corner of Route 113 and Thorndike Street since 1995. Picking is pick-your-own and seasonal, following whichever berry is ripening — strawberries open the season, brambles carry it into late summer. It's a small, family-run operation rather than a destination farm with a gift shop or café, so call ahead to check what's ready before making the drive.

Salem

Not a farm — this is Salem's month-long Halloween festival, running since 1982 and now drawing over a million visitors for parades, walking tours, museum events, and vendor fairs across the city each October.

Salem

Beverly Bees Store occupies a storefront unit at 24 New Derby Street on Salem's North Shore. The name points to honey and bee products rather than a working farm field, but no hours or contact information are publicly listed.

Bolton

Bolton Spring Farm covers 150 acres on Main Street in Bolton, land that started as a dairy in the early 1800s before Howard Stephenson planted it as an apple and fruit orchard in 1937. The roadside stand, running since 1965, sells more than 25 apple varieties plus peaches, corn, pumpkins, baked goods, and cut-your-own Christmas trees. Pick-your-own apples run in season. Cash only — there's an ATM on site.

Harvard

Carlson Orchards has grown apples on this Harvard property since 1936, and the family operation now runs a hard cider taproom alongside its farm stand, pouring the full current lineup of Carlson-made ciders. It's a working orchard first, with the taproom giving visitors a reason to stick around after the apple bags are packed. The farm store stays open through the harvest season, with cider and fresh fruit sold daily.

Harvard

Hammerhead Farm sits on Westcott Road in Harvard, the same stretch that runs through the town's cluster of blueberry and apple growers in the Nashoba Valley. No separate website or listing distinguishes this farm's specific offerings yet.

Beverly

Green Beverly turns Moraine Farm into a pumpkin-smashing field day each November — neighbors haul in leftover jack-o'-lanterns and Halloween pumpkins and launch them across the lawn, then the whole pile gets composted instead of landfilled. The free event runs late morning into early afternoon with a live bluegrass band, lawn games, food vendors, and a raffle. Adults must register in advance; parking is off-site with a shuttle.

Windham

Johnson's Highland View Farm is on Range Road in Windham, a Rockingham County town in southern New Hampshire. It is listed as an agritourism farm. Specific crops, pick-your-own offerings, or contact details were not confirmed online at the time of writing.

Harvard

Harvard, Massachusetts has been blueberry and apple country for generations, and Hazel U-Pick on Westcott Road carries the pick-your-own tag to prove it. Current crops, pricing, and season dates aren't posted online.

Holliston

Holliston is a Middlesex County suburb about 25 miles southwest of Boston, and Patt's Blueberries on Gorwin Drive grows the crop right there in its name. Picking hours, pricing, and contact details haven't turned up online.

Holbrook

Nihtila Farm is a pick-your-own pumpkin patch on Nihtila Lane in Holbrook, open Friday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., once the fall crop comes in. It's a one-crop operation — no orchard, no corn maze, just rows of pumpkins and a scale by the gate. Call ahead in early fall to confirm the patch has opened for the season.

Harvard

Doe Orchards farms 60 acres in Harvard growing apples, blueberries, vegetables, sunflowers, and Christmas trees, with pick-your-own and a farm stand as the main draw — no admission charge, no extra fees for wandering the rows. Current summer hours run Tuesday through Saturday, 9am to 4pm, with raspberries and blueberries ready for picking as of this season.

South Hamilton

Green Meadow Farms sits on Asbury Street in South Hamilton, in the horse country north of Boston around Myopia Hunt Club and Bradley Palmer State Park. No current website or listing confirms how the property operates today.

Groton

Autumn Hills Orchard has been family-run since 1945, and the orchard now carries more than 25 apple varieties alongside peaches, pears, plums, and newer raspberry and blueberry plantings. It's a fruit farm first — no corn maze or petting zoo — open Wednesday through Sunday, 10am to 4pm. The orchard posts picking updates on Instagram and Facebook through the season.

Windham

Apple Acres is an orchard operation on Searles Road in Windham, in southern Rockingham County near the Massachusetts line. The name points to apples, a crop this corner of New Hampshire grows well, though the farm keeps little presence online. Call ahead to confirm pick-your-own dates and what's ripe before visiting.

Bolton

Nashoba Valley Winery has made wine on its 50-acre Bolton property since 1978, adding a distillery, brewery, and J's Restaurant alongside the working orchard and vineyard. Visitors can walk the pick-your-own orchard in season, taste wine at no charge, or eat at the restaurant housed in the property's historic farmhouse. Open daily except major holidays.

Georgetown

Morehouse's Wheeler Brook Farm sits on Jewett Street in Georgetown, in the Essex County farmland along the Parker River watershed. No independent site or listing was found to confirm what it grows or sells now.

Still River

Captain Pollard's Flintlock Farm centers on an 1782 Georgian Colonial built by Thaddeus Pollard, a Revolutionary War minuteman, on land that includes an 1830s double English barn and the fourth-oldest American sycamore in Massachusetts. The current owners are restoring the property under its herb-farm identity, 1782 Farm, and offer exterior tours of the grounds. This isn't a pick-your-own stop — it's a historic homestead mid-restoration.

Haverhill

Turkey Hill Farm in Haverhill spreads its pick-your-own crops across the whole growing season — raspberries, blueberries, and lavender through summer, blackberries and cut flowers bookending the shoulder seasons, apples and sunflowers by fall. The farm shop sells cider donuts alongside whatever's coming out of the fields that week. It's a working multi-crop operation, not a one-weekend festival stop.

Berlin

Berlin is a small Worcester County town next door to Bolton's well-known orchard country, and Great Oak Farm on Highland Street sits within it under an agritourism listing. No site or contact details describe current operations.

Dunstable

Patenaude Farm sits on River Street in Dunstable, listed as a working farm stand serving the town's stretch of the Nashua River valley. Details are thin online — no working farm website turned up in research — so the most reliable way to check current hours or what's available is a direct call to the farm.

Nashua

Fright Kingdom is a haunted-house attraction at 12 Simon Street in Nashua, running five indoor haunts under one roof, among them Z-Apocalypse, Blood Mare, Psycho, Grim, and Abandoned. It bills itself as one of New England's scariest haunts and opens for the Halloween season, with tickets sold online. This is an indoor entertainment venue rather than a working farm.

Berlin

Berlin Orchards traces back 50 years to Chedco Farm, renamed in 1995 after Barry O'Brien expanded the property's apple, pear, and peach production across 200 rolling acres. Visitors pick Macs, Macoun, Jonagold, Mutsu, and Honeycrisp in season, then work through cider donuts, pumpkins, a hayride to the orchard, and a small petting zoo. It's a full fall-outing farm, not just a fruit stand.

Plaistow

A greenhouse grower on Newton Road in Plaistow specializing in flowers and bedding plants, and going on more than 50 years in business. Beyond finished plants, they offer pick-your-own flowers in season. The greenhouses open 9am to 6pm most days, with a later 3pm start on Tuesdays. Richard Goudreault runs the operation.

Berlin

Indian Head Farm, also known as Cordelia's Farm, has been worked by the same family since the 1830s and is now run by its sixth and seventh generations. The farm grows blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, corn, tomatoes, and a wide range of other vegetables for pick-your-own and farm stand sales.

Bolton

This Bolton location grows Paula Red through Golden Delicious apples across a seasonal picking calendar running late August into October. The family farm pairs its orchard with a corn maze, hayrides, and farm-animal areas, and welcomes leashed pets. It closed for the 2025 season but keeps taking inquiries for event bookings ahead.

Franklin

Gianettis' U-Pick Blueberries grows on Union Street in Franklin, one of a handful of working blueberry patches left in the upper Charles River watershed. No current site or listing confirms this season's picking hours.
