Rushmore farm is a family farm, located in Somerville, Connecticut.
We are a unique farm in the area, in that we GROW & SELL everything we do, right here on our farm!!! A lot of other farmstands in the area buy and resell – which is awesome too – but we are DIRECT FROM US, TO YOU!!!
We grow a variety of produce, and some we are particularly “famous” for – like our CORN!!! It is the best, GUARANTEED!! Our tomatoes, and now garlic crop, are our next big sellers. But this is not all we grow, here is a list of what is usually out in the field. Every year Lorrie modifies and try’s new things that peek her interest, or are customer requests. But this list is a good standard. We also have pick your own at high season for Tomatoes, Eggplant, and Peppers. See our Pick Your Own page.
