Stillman's
Stillman's Farm® is a family owned farm in central Massachusetts. We currently operate at two locations: a greenhouse/retail business in Lunenburg, and the majority of vegetable production in New Braintree. Glenn Stillman started the business in Lunenburg over 30 years ago and now enjoys the promise of the next generation further expanding the very diverse enterprise. His daughter, Kate, bought a farm in Hardwick, MAssachusetts, The Turkey Farm, where she raises animals for meat production and also works at many of the farmers' markets. His son Curtis is developing an orchard at the Lunenburg farm as well as cultivating tree fruits and small fruits at his own farm, Still Life Farm, also in Hardwick. The farms also have several Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs established at the farms in Lunenburg and New Braintree, and many locations in the Greater Boston Area, including Jamaica Plain, Brookline, Southborough/Framingham, and Quincy. In addition, the Stillman's trucks have become a fixture at the Boston Area Farmer's Markets, such as City Hall Plaza, Copley and Jamaica Plain
Our Philosophy
Most of Stillman's produce is grown without chemicals. For a few crops this simply is not feasible. For these particular crops, we participate in the State Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. This entails systematic scouting of fields, protection of beneficial insects, bio-controls, and well-timed applications of only the safest pesticides. With growing concern about genetically modified organisms (GMO), as a patron you can be confident that none of the produce we grow have been engineered, in fact, we often experiment with many heirloom varieties!
Conscientiously Grown®
The combination of no pesticides, good cultivation management, and IPM practices allows us to offer the widest possible selection of fruit and vegetable varieties and be a thriving sustainable farm. We have developed our own label, "conscientiously grown" to convey our commitment to the safety of our environment, family and customers. All of our hormone free, pasture raised meats carry a conscientiously grown label too!
