About The Farm...
Anawan Farm is a small family run fifth generation farm. Generationally, we specialized in vegetables. We have, for the past several years offered veggies and flowers. However, the farm, as of 2022, has been in transition to become strictly a upick farm. We no longer grow our own vegetables. However, we will continue growing our infamous sunflowers and zinnia's in 2024 along with focusing on pruning our 300 blueberry bush yearlings. They are scheduled for picking, pending all goes well, by 2026. At some point in the near future the farm will also offer upick strawberries and potentially other upick items as well.
Flowers are available at the farm stand mid-July to September. If the weather cooperates, then we MIGHT have sunflowers into October. If upick is not for you, then you may stop by the farm stand for a bunch of precut bouquets offered with and without a vase. Price ranging from $10-$25. Keep an eye out on Facebook or Instagram for weekly in-season floral specials.
Welcome to Anawan Farm, where we provide a unique experience during your visit. We are a family farm devoted to providing experiences for the public. We encourage families to visit our farm during our open hours of operation. While visiting, we encourage you to ask questions about farming, homesteading, and raising animals. The farm is only open during the months of July, September, October, November and December.
FARM GOALS:
-
TO BRING FRIENDS & FAMILIES TOGETHER
-
TO OFFER EVENTS FOR THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY TO ENJOY:
-
Simply put. Events with food & festivities bring people to gather, spend time together & inevitably create community.
-
-
TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC:
-
We offer a fabulous opportunity on our farm where you can sign up as a "workshare". Workshares learn all about the different aspects of upick farming. Workshares gain experience by giving time and in return we give a portion of what we grow to our workshares.
-
-
ANAWAN FARM AS A WEDDING VENUE:
-
If you have a party, rustic farm wedding, or special occasion, we can host it for you. Our pricing is extremely reasonable compared to other local venues.
-
We are always interested in lots of different ways to promote community whether it be through food workshops, recipe sharing, fall, winter and spring craft workshops, or running our work-share program throughout the summer and fall. We are also, if time permits, very open to holding community fundraisers for local established groups.
If you have any ideas you would like to share with our farm or have a collaboration in mind, please contact us!
About Me...
FarmHer, Designer, and Mother
My background began as a graphic designer many years ago. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Massachusetts College of Art & Design, Boston, MA with a major in Product Design. I worked as a home decor designer, designing many products for high end retailers such as Walmart, Kohls, Boscov's, and other well known retailers.
I started farming upon making the decision to stay home and raise my two children. Both are now, 13 & 15years old. I have owned & operated Anawan Farm since 2016. I began with a small side stand that quickly sold out. Planting sunflowers, zinnia's, a variety of chemical free veggies. Fast forward to 2024. Two high tunnels and a new farmstand are on our farm. The farm is currently on track to transition strictly to a UPICK FARM specializing in sunflowers, zinnia's, Blueberry's. At some point in the future, Strawberry's will be added.
Anawan Farm is a fifth generation farm. Our children, should they choose to live here, will be the sixth generation to live in Rehoboth, MA.
My hope is for you to take time to enjoy the simplicity of spending time together on the farm. Life can be overwhelming, constantly busier than busy. The farm is here to offer some peace amongst the chaos. A little bit of time that stands still...for everyone.
