Spring
We are working tirelessly in our greenhouses getting ready for spring . We are always searching for the best and new varieties of vegetables, perennials, bedding plants and herbs. Our family has been farming for 74 years and have learned through our mistakes. We know them because we from them from start to finish. We sow the seed and reap the harvest , closely monitor the PH of the soil , and make sure there are never GMO's . We grow in over 12 greenhouses on our farm and make sure we grow a wide variety of everything from Alyssum, Celreiac, Tomatoes to Zinnias. Pezza Farm has shrubs, perennials, annuals, herbs, all your garden needs such as fertilizer and soil amendments. Our family its always here happy to give advice and tips to help your garden be a success. Fall
We grow over 10,000 mums and flowering kale to help you make your yard burst with color. In addition to all the gorgeous bloomers we have pumpkins, gourds, cornstalks, and have everything you need including farm fresh veggies and family fun with hayrides and scarecrow making! |
Summer
We harrow, plow, prepare and plant our fields getting them ready to produce an array of vegetables such as green beans, fennel, arugula, corn and zucchini. We rotate our crops to make sure we are never stripping the land of its vital nutrients and never use unnecessary chemicals. We eat what we grow and live off our land so we take great pride in being all natural and composting our soil. Winter
Our greenhouses are bursting with color in December . With the temperatures dropping the Poinsettias are a sight for sore eyes and we have them in an array of colors. We carry fresh cut Christmas Trees, plain wreaths, beautifully decorated wreaths, boxwood trees, centerpieces, garland, bunches of greens, cyclamen, kissing balls and so much more. 
You Can't Beat our Meat!
We now offer our own humanely raised grass fed beef. Our cows graze freely on 20 acres and during the winter. months when hay isn't quite enough we supplement their feed with our own silage. Our corn is grown all natural, harvested for our customers then the greens are chopped to make silage for our cows. Our beef then gets processed at The Humane Slaughter house in Westport Mass, cut and frozen immediately to bring a high quality meat to our customers. |

Celebrating over 70 years!
Pezza Farm is celebrating over 70 years of family owned and operated. Our Farm was purchased in 1947 by my Grandfather when my dad was 5 years old. The farm has gone through many changes over the years, adapting in the process. Needless to say, we are grateful to our customers for giving us the opportunity to do what we love, and keeping the importance of loving the land in the family. 
Where did the animals go??
*due to Covid the animal area is currently closed until further notice The Animal Area is open daily 10-3:30with a fee of $1.00 per person. which includes animal feed. We have new additions to our animal menagerie, Eye-ore and Barney the donkeys have joined the farm family as have 2 new baby calf's so far, with more to come. If you drive in you may notice something a bit different and many of our customers are asking the same question, " Where did the animals go?" . For the safety of our customers and for the well being of our animals we moved the animals to the back part of the greenhouse, it has been a long time coming. Too may people were feeding them items that were making them ill & chasing the chickens. Our animals now have the opportunity to graze in our fields and not be locked up in pens. We still offer food to feed them, and you may still visit them. However if you do not wish to feed them do not go up to the pens, this is not fair to the animals since they will be expecting a treat and may nip when you reach your hand out. We have goats, chickens, turkeys, Pokey the pony and the miniature horses, Lily & Cheyenne to visit. Keep the Weeds out
Our Straw that we sell is dual purpose, is also known as garden straw. It makes a perfect decoration, but unlike hay or other straw this can be used at the end of the season to cover your perennials & shrubs for winter protection or throw it in your veggie garden to make a fantastic compost and place a layer of newspaper down with the straw on top making it a natural weed barrier. This being that the wheat and seeds have already been harvested from it so it will not have the seed in it like the other type promoting troublesome weeds and rye in your garden. |
The Pezza Family
Pezza Farm has been family owned, operated and maintained by us, the Pezza's since 1947. We love what we do, and are grateful that we have been able to do so. We truly believe in the importance of taking care of the land. This is our life, our livelihood and do not want to do anything to jeopardize that, in addition if we take care of it in return the land will take care of us. Using natural chemicals is something we also believe in, we grow what we eat and always want to offer a quality product to our customers. |
