Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Stow, MA

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Bolton

Nicewicz Family Farm in Bolton runs a pick-your-own operation for fruit, vegetables, and flowers, with a separate peony field the family sells from each spring under the name Nicewicz Peonies. Everything comes off 116 Sawyer Road, and hours shift with whatever's ripening that week. Call before driving out — the picking calendar changes fast enough that it's worth checking first.

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.

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.

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.

South Lancaster

The Siver family has run George Hill Orchards since 1974, growing blueberries, peaches, nectarines, apples, and pumpkins for pick-your-own across central Massachusetts. School groups come for the Apple Tree Theater and the Tree-mendous Maze; everyone else comes for the fruit. The farm stays open Sunday and Wednesday through Friday, with self-serve hours extending into the evening, and closes entirely on Saturdays.

Westborough

Sixth-generation and still working roughly 35 acres, Harvey's Farm grows its own produce and transplants and runs a certified garden center out of a converted dairy barn that once held 60-plus cattle. Pick-your-own blueberries and vegetables run alongside a CSA and a gift barn stocked with garden and home decor.

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.

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.

Lancaster

Apple Lane Orchard grows heritage apples, including Cortland, McIntosh, and Gravenstein trees planted since the Flint family founded the orchard in the early 1800s. Current owner Dayna Gant, who took over in 2000, runs it as a pick-your-own orchard alongside a Dutch sport horse operation on the same hilltop property in rural Lancaster.

Sterling

The Chandler family has grown apples, blueberries, pumpkins, and nectarines on this 100-acre Sterling farm since 1912, now in its fifth generation. The on-site bakery turns out cider donuts, turnovers, and pies, and the farmstand kitchen serves soups, sandwiches, and weekend breakfast alongside seasonal picking.

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.

Sterling

Davis Farmland's Mega Maze redesigns its eight-acre, three-mile pattern every year, drawing praise as one of the more complex corn mazes anywhere. The Sterling property also lets kids pet, feed, and ride ponies among its farm animals, plus laser tag; combo admission for maze, farmland, and laser tag starts around $19.95, free under age 2.

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.

Westborough

Nourse Farm has worked the same Westborough ground since 1722, making it one of the oldest continuously farmed properties in the area. The stand sells fresh fruits and vegetables alongside farm-produced honey, jam, pies, donuts, and bread. Pick-your-own runs mid-June through October for strawberries, blueberries, flowers, and apples, and the property also hosts Assunta's, a food truck serving Italian-inspired farm suppers.

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.

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.

Leominster

Leominster is better known for its plastics-industry history than its farmland, which makes Woody's Fall Farmstand on Brown Avenue stand out. The name and farm-stand listing point to a seasonal autumn operation, though this farm's specific lineup isn't posted online.

Sterling

Clearview Farm is a 32-acre seasonal orchard and farm stand on Kendall Hill Road, run by Rick and Diane Melone. Pick-your-own runs through strawberries, blueberries, peaches, raspberries, apples, and pumpkins as each comes into season, and the stand also sells plants, baked goods, cider, and maple syrup. Open daily, 9am to 6pm through October, then 9am to 5pm the rest of the season.

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.

Sterling

Pineo Family Farm runs a small produce stand in Sterling alongside its sawmill and lumber operation, selling fresh vegetables to the local community while also processing timber into forest products. It's an unusual pairing — working farmstand and working sawmill on the same land.

Sterling

Pineo Family Farm is on Tuttle Road in Sterling, a Worcester County hill town with a mix of orchards and dairy operations. No independent website or listing details were found online.

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.

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.

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.

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.

LEOMINSTER

This 169-acre orchard in Leominster is owned by the city and run by the nonprofit Friends of Sholan Farms, not a private grower. U-pick apples, raspberries, and blueberries are the draw, alongside hiking trails through the property — proceeds go back into maintaining the community-owned land.

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.

Pepperell

Four generations deep on 176 acres, Kimball Fruit Farm opens strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, apples, pumpkins, and flowers to pick-your-own visitors seven days a week from late April through Thanksgiving. Hours run 9am to 6pm, later in summer.

Upton

Town Line Dairy Farm raises its own beef, pork, lamb, and pasture-raised chicken and turkey on land that's been in the same family for generations, going back to original owners Edward and Stephie Kuczinski. The on-site store sells the farm's meat alongside free-range eggs and a rotating stock of local goods. A pizza truck sets up on the property some summer weekends. It's a working farm rebuild, not a polished agritourism stop, and that's part of its appeal.

Townsend

Settlement Farm is on Wallace Hill Road in Townsend, a farming town on the New Hampshire border in North Central Massachusetts. No website or listing details were found online to confirm current operations.

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.

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.

BROOKLINE

Averill House Vineyard is a small-estate winery on Averill Road in Brookline, in southern New Hampshire near the Massachusetts line. It grows grapes and pours its own wines for tasting on site. The vineyard's website sits behind a bot-protection screen, so current tasting-room hours, the wine list, and any events are best confirmed by phone or through the vineyard directly.

hollis

Fulchino Vineyard makes American wines with an Italian accent on Pine Hill Road in Hollis, in southern New Hampshire. Tastings come with salami, prosciutto, artisan cheese, bread, and dipping oil, served indoors or out on the patios. The estate also runs an on-site restaurant, Cucina di Mirabella, plus a wine club and space for private functions and tour groups.

Townsend

Townsend sits near the New Hampshire line in north-central Massachusetts, and D.J. Hussey Farm on Burgess Road is registered there under an agritourism listing. No website, phone number, or product list has surfaced in public records.

Holden

SummitWynds runs as part working farm, part event venue in Holden — raw honey and farm-fresh eggs sold alongside lavender grown on site, with weddings, farm-to-table dinners, and a running calendar of seasonal draws like the Butterfly Experience and Unicorn Experience. Overnight stays are booked through Airbnb. It's less a farm stand than a destination built around the harvest.

Sutton

Keown Orchards grows apples on McClellan Road in Sutton, next to Foppema's Farm in the same pocket of Worcester County orchard country. Its old web domain is now parked for sale, and no current listing confirms whether pick-your-own hours still run.

Sutton

Foppema's Farm grows strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, plums, and apples across the season, with sweet corn, tomatoes, and winter squash filling out the vegetable rows. Fall brings pumpkins, winter squash, and fresh-pressed cider. The farm sells from its own stand and also runs tables at the Copley Square and Natick Common farmers markets, and accepts SNAP and HIP benefits. Open Monday through Saturday, 9am to 6pm.

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.

Hollis

Hollis

The Dark Crop is the fall haunted corn maze at Lavoie's Farm, a working Hollis farm on Nartoff Road that grows strawberries, blueberries, apples, and pumpkins. The farm stand runs early June through December 1, open daily 8am to 7pm, and Lavoie's produce also turns up at Nashua spots like Hayward's Ice Cream and the Big 1. Call 603-882-0072 for maze dates and hours.

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.

Mendon

Vandervalk Farm & Winery in Mendon pours its own wine, sangria, and slushees alongside pick-your-own blueberries and cut-your-own Christmas trees. The tasting room runs Friday afternoons into evening and Sunday midday, often with live music and a food truck parked out front. It's equal parts working farm and neighborhood hangout.

Whitinsville

West End Creamery in Whitinsville combines an ice cream stand, mini golf course, and an Adventure Farm petting area under one roof, open daily from 10 a.m. The fall lineup adds a corn maze and harvest festival running mid-September through October. It reads more like a family entertainment stop than a working farm, though the Adventure Farm keeps animals on site year-round.
