We went to the Apple Harvest Festival in Glastonbury yesterday and I ran across their stand and just had to stop because my husband has been asking for jam and they had soooo many options my only regret is that I didn鈥檛 get the larger jars 馃槱 We went with tried and true flavors and they鈥檙e AMAZING!! Strawberry Jam, Raspberry Jam and Triple berry 馃┓馃
I went today and I had a great experience the apples to die for very good variety of veggies and fruits the young men behind the counter very nice Great customer service.
their jams are incredible, the variety and uniqueness of flavors is unmatched. i鈥檝e gone through a small jar of the hot pepper jam almost in its entirety in less than 24 hours! can鈥檛 wait to try more flavors. prices are reasonable (if not slightly cheaper than in-store specialty items) for locally grown & made. produce is always beautiful and fresh, too! market or store, i purchased recently from the wadsworth market & will purchase anytime i see them.
The eggs I bought are 8 dollars a dozen. While the price is a bit high, you are getting fresh farm eggs. Their other products are natural but highly priced too.
Fresh and exceptional quality foods.
Great local farm-stand! Family favorite for sure! Plenty of local businesses represented here! Run by a family who cares about the community and supporting it! Great selection of produce and farm raised meats and eggs.
My wife and I love this place! We CSA summer and fall and shop often. Not only is their produce top notch, but they're also a one stop shop for local ethically raised and processed chicken, pork, beef, and dairy! To add icing on the proverbial cake, the staff are friendly and helpful. It's about the real food! Shop the local farms and make the grocery stores send out a wellness check on you. 馃槄
Friendly service and some good products. But, I stopped for a fresh, healthier, homemade kind of pie, & later, after purchase, realized it was an unhealthier version made in some big pie factory in, or near Hartford.
Awesome fresh veggies, eggs, and fresh untouched meats. Conveniently located in town and such a gem for health conscious eaters. The hot sausage was so delicious.. not overly spicy and not too bland. I don鈥檛 mind spending a little extra to know what I鈥檓 consuming and only putting real food in my body. Great, friendly, family run 馃挒
Killam & Bassette Farmstead is a family farm in South Glastonbury, Connecticut, growing fruits and vegetables since 1893 with free range eggs, USDA pork and chicken and a year round farm stand.
Killam & Bassette Farmstead has been farming in South Glastonbury, Connecticut since 1893. Kevin Bassette started working for Henry Killam at nine years old on what was then a dairy and tobacco farm, and he and Chris Bassette moved it into produce as milk prices declined. Today the family grows quality fruits and vegetables, picks its sweet corn the morning it is sold, and produces free range eggs, award winning canned goods and all natural, non GMO USDA pork and chicken. They spray minimally, using integrated pest management with beneficial insects wherever they can.
The farm stand at 1098 Main Street is open all year, daily from Mother's Day to December 31 and Tuesday to Sunday through winter. The family runs three CSA programs, attends 18 farmers markets a season, and hosts farm dinner fundraisers for a memorial scholarship. The stand also carries Connecticut milk, cheeses, honey, maple syrup and pies from other local producers alongside its own goods.
