Aasawaga Farm

About

Located in the "quiet corner" of Connecticut, Assawaga Farm is a Certified Organic farm growing vegetables, herbs, flowers and fruits with an emphasis on Japanese varieties. The word "assawaga", meaning "place between" or "halfway place", is the original Nipmuc name for the river now commonly known as the Five Mile River. Being embraced by the Assawaga River to the west and the Mary Brown Brook to the east, Assawaga Farm is quite literally the "place between", with the confluence of the waterways promoting a wealth of fertility and biodiversity. ​ We purchased raw land in June of 2016 and since then we have built our farm from the ground up, adding a barn/house and greenhouse, drilling a well, putting in a driveway and turning a decades old hayfield into a productive farm! We take great care in producing high quality, nutritious vegetables for our community.
