About Devon Point Farm in Woodstock, CT

Cut Your Own FREE Firewood! If the field is wet, please stay off of it, we don't want ruts in the field. Please phone 860-974-9004 to make sure the field will be open (weather permitting) and to find out how to access the field. Devon Point Farm will be opening it's gates, as our way of saying thank you to our CSA Farm Share Members, and as a way of saying "welcome" to members of our community. We will be sharing our all-natural source of green, local, sustainable home heating assistance! We are offering a free opportunity for local residents to come to our farm and cut their own firewood from hardwood trees already felled with the branches removed. The felled trees are located in a field, so you would need a 4WD truck, your own chainsaw, and you are welcome to bring your own log splitting equipment as well. You would just need to cut the logs to the length that would fit in your woodstove, split them, and load them into your truck. If fields are wet and muddy, we will postpone until the field is dry enough to drive in. You must have a 4WD truck, no cars. Please phone 860-974-9004 to make sure the field will be open (weather permitting) and to find out how to access the field. |

Gourmet Grassfed Beef - Devon Point Farm's grass fed beef is 100% natural, 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, no hormones, no antibiotics, and humanely raised and processed. Cattle are pastured only (not confined in a freestall barn), and eat only what nature intended... grass, hay, clean water, fresh air and sunshine. Our grass fed beef is processed in a USDA certified facility, plastic wrapped, labeled with the cut, and frozen.
Vegetable & Flower CSA Shares - At Devon Point Farm, all of our vegetables and flowers are naturally field grown using only OMRI® listed products and only when absolutely necessary. OMRI® is the "Organic Materials Review Institute" that manages the list of products that comply with USDA organic standards. We do not use synthetic fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides. We fertilize with organically-rich compost made from manure from our grassfed cows. Our CSA Shares provide members with 18 weeks of fresh, local, seasonal vegetables and gorgeous flowers. Shares are available for weekly on-farm pickup in Woodstock, CT on Tuesdays or Fridays, for delivery to Ellington/Crystal Lake on Tusdays, or Thursday deliveries to Stonington, CT, New London, CT, and Fishers Island, NY.
American Milking Devon Cattle - Devon Point Farm has one of America's largest and finest herds of the rare, heritage, endangered breeds of cattle originally known as 'North Devon' cattle, now known in America as 'American Milking Devon' cattle. Our heifers are sought after for breedstock and our bull calves as herd sires. It was a great honor in 2008, that our calves were selected to become the first herd of American Milking Devons to be brought across the border to reside in Canada. Our herd is a closed, disease-free herd, having undergone rigorous veterinary testing for the international border crossing as well as for sales to various discerning customers throughout the years. Our breedstock available for sale is limited, please call today for availability or to get on our waiting list.
Weddings and Events - Devon Point Farm features a gorgeous post-and-beam barn that we rent out for weddings, large and small gatherings and events.
