Nestled in the heart of Scarborough, Maine, Flaherty’s Family Farm has been a cornerstone of the local agricultural community for decades. This family-run operation is more than just a place to buy fresh produce; it’s a living embodiment of sustainable farming practices and deep-rooted family values.
Founded over 75 years ago, Flaherty’s Family Farm has grown from a small farm to a thriving business that provides high-quality fruits, vegetables, and seasonal goods to the surrounding community. At the core of the farm’s success is a dedication to sustainability and a passion for offering locally grown, fresh produce to customers. The Flaherty family has been committed to environmentally friendly farming techniques that enrich the land and produce healthy, vibrant crops.
The farm operates year-round, with each season offering something unique. In the spring and summer, visitors can pick up a wide range of vegetables, from fresh greens and tomatoes to peppers and zucchini. Summer also brings the joy of berry picking, where families can gather to harvest juicy strawberries and blueberries. The fall season is equally popular, with pumpkins, gourds, and a large selection of fall vegetables. For many locals, it’s a family tradition to visit the farm during autumn for pumpkin picking and to enjoy the beautiful fall scenery.
Flaherty’s Family Farm has also made a name for itself by going beyond just crops. They offer a variety of locally sourced products, including fresh eggs, meats, baked goods, and even plants and flowers for home gardens. This focus on offering diverse, high-quality products has cemented the farm as a trusted destination for Scarborough residents and visitors alike.
One of the key aspects of Flaherty’s is its community involvement. The farm regularly hosts events that bring the community together, such as hayrides, seasonal festivals, and educational programs for children. These programs are designed to teach the importance of sustainable farming and the role it plays in maintaining a healthy environment.
