Massaro Community Farm is a 57-acre organic vegetable farm on the border of Woodbridge and Ansonia. The farm sells its produce to ~225 seasonal subscribers each year, to nearby restaurants, and at farmer’s markets. The farm also provides educational opportunities for all ages, and specifically for elementary-aged children who haven’t been exposed to where and how their food is grown. Expanding educational programming at the farm includes an after-school and vacation series, field trips, summer camp, farm tours, and adult workshops. The farm donates at least 10% of its annual harvest to hunger relief, which averages 6,200 pounds each year.
