Still Life Farm is a small family farm, owned and operated by Curtis and Halley Stillman. Situated in the idyllic farming town of Hardwick, MA, this 60-acre farm property continues a proud tradition of farming since it is located on what was the historic Hardwick Poor Farm, c.1850.

At Still Life Farm a high focus is given to conscientious farming practices.  Why? As farmers, Curt and Halley believe they are stewards of the land.  The farm’s location is just a stone’s throw away from the banks of the Quabbin Reservoir.  The farm’s land partnership with the East Quabbin Land Trust has allowed them to make good farm-focused land management choices.

Still Life Farm focuses on year-round vegetable and specialty fruit production.  Year-round farming is made possible by extending their food production season with winter storage vegetables and year-round greenhouse crops.  The farm features both Winter and Spring CSA programs.  Additionally, Still Life Farm offers a range of unique small fruits, herbs, and cut flowers in the summer months.

Curtis and Halley work hard to ensure their customers have access to the highest quality produce available!

Still Life Farm is a proud member of the Farmers Guild of Hardwick.
