I took a new route back home recently and found Meadowbrook Farms along Rt. 22 just outside Essex ( technically 247 Essex St South Hamilton) and was completely charmed by the employees and goods offered. I am not sure why I was surprised to see Virgilios items available, but there they were along with many other local offerings. Katie told me her Dad’s been farming for 60 years and that the business has been run since 1974. She and her brother Michael are transitioning into ownership. Organic practices are in place for the crops and the extra care shows in the selection. Check it out for yourself!



And how much does this picture of Katie harvesting pumpkins say FALL?! I am sorry I forgot the other woman’s name, but it was wonderful to meet you both.
