Lightwater Farm unites several historic farms to produce a wide variety of vegetables, fruits and herbs using natural organic methods. Lightwater Farm sources our bountiful onsite farm stand and many of the ingredients for our freshly prepared breakfasts.
Lightwater Farm
Organic Farming at its best
Lightwater Farm
Beautiful Produce
Blessed with some of the best soil on the island, the farm includes a two-acre market garden, flower production, herb and berry gardens, seven acres of heritage orchards and a glass greenhouse for year-round fresh greens.
Varying crops include lettuce, kale, carrots, tomatoes, zucchini and squash—along with blueberries, strawberries, apples, pears, plums, walnuts and hazelnuts.
Local and Delicious
Vegetables
Market garden produce on Lightwater Farm varies year-to-year: in a given season, the fresh bounty runs from cucumbers, basil, tomatoes and garlic to potatoes, kale, beets and butternut squash. Multiple varieties of lettuce and other leafy greens grow year-round in our 1,800-square-foot glass greenhouse.
Our farmers take mindful care of the land through crop rotation, companion plantings, and other organic methods. Adding in local soil amendments—such as the seaweed that washes ashore on our beach—ensures sustainability and a terroir unique to Lightwater Farm.
Fresh and sweet
Berries & Fruit
In addition to apples, the farm has over thirty other fruit and nut trees, bringing a wealth of pears, plums, almonds, walnuts, and hazelnuts every year. Strawberries, blueberries and goji berries also flourish in select berry patches.
