Wilson Farm Inc

About

Wilson Farm is a long-running Lexington farm stand and market selling produce from its own fields, along with baked goods and prepared foods from its bakery and kitchen, cut flowers and arrangements, specialty groceries, and meats and seafood. An open-air nursery supplies plants for home gardens. Seasonal favorites include the farm’s own apple cider donuts and caramel apples, and the produce board lists many vegetables grown on the farm itself.

Irish immigrants James Alexander Wilson, W.M. Wilson and brother-in-law George Reynolds came to Lexington from Enniskillen, Ireland, and the farm began on 16 acres in 1864. It has operated at its present site since 1884 and now covers 33 acres in Lexington plus about 500 acres in Litchfield, New Hampshire. Its motto is fresh, affordable and local, and the farm contrasts its homegrown produce with what a supermarket can offer.
