THE FARM
At Mayfair our farming focus is on raising Dorset cross lambs in the woods and on pasture, feeding them non-GMO grains. Our sustainably raised lamb is full of flavor and produced humanely. Preservation of the land that feeds us and surrounds us with natural beauty has been a priority for us since the beginning.
Additionally, we have two small orchards producing succulent blueberries, raspberries, apples, and pears. Stop by the farm store to purchase our products, come pick your own when the fruit is in season, or find Mayfair goods at one of these fine establishments.
LAMB
We raise our animals with the highest ethical standards. Our lambs happily graze in our pastures all spring and summer, resulting in tender, delicious cuts that can’t be beat. We offer whole lambs, primal cuts, or lamb by the cut.
Our lambs are a Dorset cross with a touch of Suffolk for increased carcass size and a bit of Finn for increased maternal qualities. We lamb three times a year, allowing us to offer lamb throughout the year.
FRUIT
In mid summer our blueberry and raspberry patches are usually heavy with berries and we love seeing familes here picking their own berries, or stopping by the store for pre-picked pints.
We have 2 apple orchards on the farm with some really special viarieties including Sweet Sixteen, Honey Crisp, Crimson Crisp, Liberty, Ashmead's Kernel, Gala, Cameo, Gold Rush and Enterprise. All of our apples are great for whatever you might have in mind, but we've tried to emphasize varieties that are exceptional for eating right off the tree.
All of our fruit is sustainably produced and pesticide free.
