About The Farm

The Gibbet Hill Farm is located on 80 acres in Groton, MA.  While traditionally a Black Angus cattle farm, we have expanded to grow produce for our restaurants and other businesses within the Webber Restaurant Group.  Today, over three acres of produce is growing specifically for our chefs’ use.  We grow over 20 varieties of heirloom tomatoes, squashes and zucchini, heirloom beets, edible flowers, radishes, greens, peppers, beans, Swiss chard, specialty onions, herbs, and many other crops.  We have a beehive that pollinates our field as well as provides honey for the restaurants.

One of the goals of the farm is to expand the growing season so that local produce can be used in our businesses year-round.  We accomplish that using a number of traditional techniques that allow us to extend the local food season into a twelve-month cycle.

• In the winter, we use a passive solar hoop house in our fields that allows us to grow spinach and salad greens well into December, and start harvesting again in April.
• Our chefs use traditional canning and pickling techniques to preserve any excess produce for use in the winter.
• We have a root cellar that stores winter squashes, carrots, turnips, onions, and potatoes.
• We serve honey during the winter months that has been harvested from our own bees.

In addition to regularly supplying our restaurants and catering company with produce, we also hold a number of farm dinners each growing season.  These dinners, which take place in the Barn at Gibbet Hill, are sourced almost exclusively from our fields.  They are an opportunity for our customers to tour the farm and see our current crop, talk with our farmers and farm partners, and enjoy a hard earned meal with the people that are responsible for growing it.  For information on our farm dinners and to be notified when one is coming up, please follow us on facebook or sign up for our email notifications.
