Wilson Farm is a foodie haven - bursting at the seams with not only perfect produce, but delicious cheeses, farm-fresh milk and eggs, gorgeous cut flowers, fine meat and freshly caught fish, homemade dishes from our kitchen and fresh-baked breads.
Founded by Irish immigrants, Wilson Farm has been in operation at its present location since 1884. James Alexander Wilson, W.M. Wilson, and brother-in-law George Reynolds came to Lexington from Enniskillen, Ireland. Here they were able to buy 16 acres of land and rent some of the surrounding fields for farming. James A. Wilson was the salesman, and the other partners worked the farm, growing vegetable crops and plants. Included among them were: cabbage, white turnip, celery, carrots, and beets.
Today the farm has expanded from 16 acres to 33 acres in Lexington; and to an additional 500 acres in Litchfield, New Hampshire.
