At Old Frog Pond Farm, we’re all about bringing together organic farming, art, and community.
Nestled in Harvard, MA, our certified-organic orchard and self‑serve farmstand offer seasonal fruits, heirloom vegetables, local honey, and more. Rooted in the philosophy "Feed the Soil, Heal the Earth," we believe in growing nutrient-rich foods by working with, not against, nature.
So, whether you’re here for pick‑your‑own berries, fresh organic offerings, or one of our community events, we hope each visit invites you to reconnect more deeply with Mother Earth.
Sorry — no dogs allowed at the farm.

THE ARTIST AND THE ORCHARD
Linda Hoffman’s new book, Overheard in the Orchard, twenty-four conversations between one Golden Delicious apple tree in the orchard and their orchardist with photographs by Ellen Harasimowicz is now available.
The book is designed by Christina Labey at Conveyer Press and the foreword is written by Maine’s apple whisperer, John Bunker, who writes,
“Here’s our chance to listen to one wise apple tree. Thank you, Linda and Ellen, for translating the conversation! Apples trees can be shy, so clearly you’ve gained their trust.”
Artist Linda Hoffman saved an orchard and reshaped her life at Old Frog Pond Farm in Harvard, Massachusetts. When she moved to the farm she didn't know anything about apple-growing. More than twenty years later, the farm is one of the few organic pick-your-own orchards in New England, as well as a hub for a thriving community of visual artists, writers, and spiritual seekers.
Hoffman, the mother of three children, a Zen practitioner, and a breast cancer survivor, has now written about her extraordinary journey in The Artist and the Orchard: A Memoir.
