A farm at your fingertips

Imagine a farm destination brimming with life and natural beauty. A place where you can participate in the egg, strawberry or tomato harvests as much or as little as you'd like. Where you can leave your car and ride into town on a bicycle. Where you can sip coffee in your private garden, and swim in a pool set in an orchard. Where you can wind down the evening around a campfire, enjoying the night sounds echoing off the trees.
So was the vision of Curtis Bashaw and his partner Will Riccio, who acquired the land that is now Beach Plum Farm in 2007. As the years have passed, Beach Plum Farm has become much more than land that grows food—it has become a destination visitors who wish to participate in the rhythms of farm life.
