Bio

Ivory Silo Farm is a certified organic farm along the southeastern coast of Massachusetts. We grow vegetables, flowers, herbs, fruit, and seeds on about 5 acres. We are also the central hub for seed preservation, variety trialing, and breeding for Freed Seed Federation. Though most of our seed growing is for local distribution, we periodically grow seed on contract and provide seed cleaning services for seed companies.
