3006 Hebron Ave, Glastonbury, CT 06033
WIND HILL FARM is a working community farm located on a portion of the “last dairy farm” in Glastonbury, Longo Farm, which is now owned by the Town of Glastonbury.
Our mission is to promote local farms, environmental stewardship and healthy eating by encouraging people of all ages to participate in farming, gardening and educational programs about healthy food choices.
The farm rents full-sun raised beds and sells seedlings and produce to the community. Through volunteer support and a range of educational farm activities we contribute to protecting our natural environment as an ongoing “organic” farm and maintain a model of a small, local farm providing our community with healthful products.
Our educational programs include a series for children (Farm Fresh Kids) geared to promoting growing, eating well, and the connection between land, environment and our good health.
In 2023, we rebuilt our community garden beds, greatly improved our rear field production by building a fence around its perimeter, and introduced a diversity garden program which welcomes people from diverse cultures to grow and demonstrate their unique herbs and produce.
We are working diligently to control the spread of invasives (including mugwort) and researching new ways to control their spread on the farm.
Please come join us as a volunteer and keep an eye on our summer concert programs.
