Company description

Turner Farm is a diversified organic seaside farm on the island of North Haven, twelve miles off the coast of Rockland. We grow small scale, high value, certified organic vegetables, berries, herbs, and flowers, using passive solar hoop houses and heated greenhouses. We raise pigs in the woods and maintain a small herd of beef cattle and a flock of laying hens in rotation on our hilly pastures.

Throughout the summer, our produce is featured in our weekly barn suppers and in the many events hosted in our stunning post and beam barn. We welcome visitors to explore the farm on their own and offer the opportunity to stay in our Guest House overlooking the farm and the Fox Island thorofare. We are a dynamic and diverse business gearing up for a great 2026 season.
