This year the Braintree Farm Stand is open Thur-Sat thru winter. I have purchased their produce and it is great and local. Today I was able to by Strawberries grown hydropinically. They do have to charge a high price for them (think of the energy needed) but what a great treat on a cold Nov day. Absolutely delush and so sweet. Do support these local farmers. They do a great job!

Absolutely terrible prices I purchased 7 carrots 7 potatoes 2 apples and 1/2 lb of green beans and it came to $16. I paid t money but after I got home and thought about it I just became furious over the fact that this price was completely ridiculous. I will never stop there again.

We were camping last weekend, and on a Saturday drive found Stillman's Farm. Beautiful, fresh produce from a wonderful family. We bought some Mole peppers that we stuffed and had for dinner last night. They disappeared quickly and we wished we had bought more. We watched the tractor pulling a wagon full of Delicata squash, and bought a bushel. Can't wait to stuff those and eat during the fall. Used the fresh leeks and garlic in some lentils. Thank you for the beautiful, fresh products, and we will be back soon.

Great little side of the road tented cart. Prices are great, people that work it are super friendly and courteous and prices are right for veg and fruit. The local fresh bread is worth a look/purchase. Its worked its way into our farmstand weekend trip out of NH.

I love Stillman's Farm! I have been a member of their CSA at the Jamaica Plain location for 3 seasons now, and couldn't be happier. It's always fun to see what kinds of delicious fruits and veggies will end up in the CSA box, and I've never been disappointed. We've also really enjoyed going out to the farm to see everything being grown and harvested! I would recommend the Stillman's produce, and especially the CSA, to anyone who loves tasty local food. I wish I still lived nearby!

Incredible CSA.. fresh, local, non gmo produce weekly! EVEN in the drought we are experiencing! Acres and acres of fields planted. They are so committed to farming and do a wonderful job. You can find them at local markets and around Boston. Their farm in New Braintree and all the planted fields are gorgeous! :)

I visited their their stand at the Copely Square farmer's market on May 27th 2016. They have a banner stating "conscientiously grown" with no other information. I asked the man at the stand if the produce was organic and he very condescendingly asked me if I even know specifically what organic means, which I did. It turns out that they use synthetic pesticides and he straight up refused to answer my question about if the produce was grown with GMO seed, so it's a pretty safe bet it is. Support farmers who advocate consumer awareness, not those who shame customers for asking questions.

Do you like fresh vegetables and fruit? If you're like me, you probably thought your only option for good produce was handing over your wallet to Whole Foods. Until my friend told me about her CSA and how it had changed her life and her health. At first, I was a little concerned. Was it a secret club? A venereal disease? Well, no! It's even better! CSA stands for "Community Supported Agriculture". You help a farm by buying a share of their produce before the crops are ready, and they reward you with boxes of produce once it's available. Everyone wins. Pick-up is easy and can be done at many locations in Greater Boston. It's like getting a surprise birthday present every week. The selection ranges depending on what's ripe at the time. Along with traditional items like lettuce and strawberries, Stillman's often tosses in some interesting things that most haven't dared to try - Swiss chard, bok choy, beets... Never fear. If you've ever wanted to be a better cook, Stillman's helps out by posting recipes on their blog as well as offering advice at the farmstand. Stillman's is only one of many local farms with a CSA program, so I encourage everyone to find one that fits their tastes and financial budget. For me, I enjoyed Stillman's because the staff is friendly, their selection is fun and they've give my boyfriend and I a fun and healthy way of making dinner. (As a side bonus, they give you "Stillman's Bucks", which is 'money' you can use at their weekly Farmers Market stops to get goodies.)
