Our farm is located on Town Farm Road in Farmington and Tillotson and Old Farms Roads in Avon, Connecticut on 289 acres in the heart of the rich Farmington River valley. The story of our farm begins some 20,000 years ago when the last glaciers retreated from Connecticut leaving our rich alluvial Hadley and Occum fine sand loams, some of the finest soils in the world. The Tunxis Indians farmed all up and down these soils along the river for which their people were named (Tunxis Sepus = Bend in the Little River). In Post-Colonial times the farm was owned for generations by the Tillotson Family who were respected dairymen. The farm was purchased by architect Theodate Pope Riddle. She named the farm “Sub-Edge” and used the farm to educate the students of her school, Avon Old Farms, about agriculture. In the second half of the 20th Century the farm was stewarded by the Fisher Family who preserved the land as open space forever into the care of the town of Farmington and Avon. Isabelle grew up in a small farm town in rural Québec. Rodger grew up in suburban Connecticut. After working part time on a small organic farm they fell in love with vegetable farming. After nine years of managing farms and gardens for others they are thrilled to be raising their family on their own family farm. Rodger and Isabelle bring a passion for good clean food to their growing and are committed to sustainable and organic farming practices.
