At Douglas Orchard & Farm, our mission is to supply the community access to the freshest, naturally grown produce and local products. Our main focus is on sustainability, permaculture, diversity, renewable energy and recycling. Our standard practice is not to use synthetic chemical pesticides, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers, antibiotics or hormones. Remember, BUY LOCAL!

In the winter of 2016, the Socrat family purchased the old Douglas Orchard and renamed it Douglas Orchard & Farm. The land was originally settled by the Nipmuc Indians and farmed since the 1700's with grazing cattle and alfalfa?. In 1964, Robert Werme Sr. bought the property and later planted the apple trees and blueberry bushes. Unfortunately, by 2015 the orchard had been neglected for over five years and was looking at being developed for housing. Now the Socrat family has brought this beautiful orchard and farm back to life.
