Hockessin

Welcome to Woodside Farm! The Mitchell family established the farm in 1796 where it was primarily a dairy farm for 165 years. The dairy herd was sold in 1961 and from that point the farm produced various crops, eggs, poultry, sheep, beef, flowers and pumpkins. We started milking cows again in 1995 and in 1998 we opened the Creamery. We make fresh ice cream right here on the farm using the milk from our 30+ Jersey cows. In 1996, the Mitchell family celebrated their 200th year of family owned farm
