LexFarm
About
LexFarm is a nonprofit community farm in Lexington that grows organic produce and invites people to connect with the land and with each other. It farms five acres year-round using regenerative methods meant to improve soil health and biodiversity, and sells its harvest through an on-site Farm Store and seasonal CSA shares. Education programs serve children from six months to 12 years old as well as adults, and volunteer programs bring community members onto the fields.
Food access is central to the farm’s mission. It partners with Food Link, Arlington EATS and the Lexington Food Pantry to get fresh produce to people facing food insecurity, and in 2025 it donated more than 25,000 dollars’ worth of organic produce. Sustainable practices include low-till and no-till farming, flower borders to attract pollinators, expanded cover cropping, straw mulch instead of plastic, and beneficial insects such as ladybugs for pest control.
