About this farm
Set in Amherst, Massachusetts, Book & Plow Farm is shaped by programs, growing spaces, and working-farm lessons. Vegetables, flowers, cover crops, fruit trees, and seasonal events give the place its texture, plus farmstand shopping for a more layered farm stop. It is the kind of farm stop where curiosity matters as much as the harvest.
