That were very reasonable and fresh tomato plants. Lots a nice fresh vegetables were very welcoming. We walked in. We explained that 1 of our children give us a gift card and that it was our first time and we wanted to get some lunch so they told us what they're their main item was which was the number two thanksgiving sandwich we then got two containers of their homemade coleslaw, which was wonderful. They had a wide variety of desserts, pies, cakes, cookies, etc. we were so full from dinner from lunch. Excuse me that we did not get dessert but we had promised we would come back we did, however, find out that they do do catering in the platters with absolutely out of this world. They had several kinds of bread as well for the sandwiches this time we got a wrap I think next time we'll definitely probably get it on like a whole-grain bread that they had because the wrap was just too much. But everybody was kind and friendly and helpful and welcoming, and that we were outside waves of the call our name and they brought our sandwiches right out to us. It was so big. We were only able to eat about maybe 3/4 and they brought the rest home for later. Met some nice people there that were singing on the tables and then the young fellow was taking the meat and stuff out of the smoker they had outside and he while we were there they took out the Rose turkey breast that they had been doing in the in the smoker, they also had ribs as well as a ham. They say they run it continuously all the time so I believe that it was just a lot of stuff going on, but there was definitely a lot of choices they had made to order. They also had fresh and they had frozen for you to take home. So this is I really like the variety we will go back.

Picked up some Turkey Dinners for Thanksgiving as I was told the outpost farm is a very popular…read moreplace for thanksgiving turkeys. Since I only needed enough food for two and didn't want to do the whole cooking all day thing, I got a premade dinner that consisted of turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and butternut squash - plus gravy and cranberry sauce. The portions/serving sizes were huge - had plenty and then some, leftovers for days!! We got it a few days early and put it in the freezer to keep...Took it out two days before eating time and let it defrost in the fridge. Transferred everything but the turkey to pots/pans on the stove for heating instead of the microwave and put the turkey in the oven day of. It was super easy to reheat everything and get it to temp. I had concerns about the mashed potatoes as those can be weird sometimes but they reheated perfectly. Everything tasted SO good, full of flavor, and very delish! The turkey was very moist and tender - like fall apart and the flavor of the gravy, and sides were all excellent. I think this was probably one of the best turkeys I have had. Definitely want to try the outpost farm again as I am sure everything they have is great. I was very happy with the choice and outcome and it made our Thanksgiving meal like a home cooked meal minus the mess and all the cooking lol.

Arcadian Farms saved our Thanksgiving.

I had attempted to call the farm a few times Thanksgiving morning which I new was a bit far fetched because everything is closed. I did however reach out on Facebook and it was a hit. Someone reached out to me within minutes. They sent out an alert to all Arcadian's in the area to see if someone could open up the farm and meet me for a pie pick up. It was amazing a few messages later I was in route to meet someone at the farm. I was kindly greeted by a fine young man at the door who greeted me with all my pies and a huge smile. I thanked him and offered a tip that he kindly declined. I can't say enough about how greatful I am to be from this little town and to have our town farm so close. They really go above and beyond for their customers. Thank you again! Hope everyone had a safe and Happy Holiday! Ps..The farm is absolutly adorable! The Pies and produce are fresh and delicious! I can not recommend them enough!!

I've worked down the street from here for the past year and a half, and have passed it going home…read morefor the past six months but just today stopped in for a visit. Granted, it's not peak time for pretty much anything (and their winter hours are shorter), so I didn't get to see check out any produce but they have a bunch of sauces, jams, and spices. They also have a variety of baked goods and cookies, some homemade pies and some local eggs, dairy and a small assortment of local cheeses. They also have a freezer with some local frozen yogurt (which, on this freezing day, I am not going to try). They had free hot mulled cider to sample as well and the lady working there was very friendly. While there wasn't a whole lot I needed there today, I will definitely be back in the spring and summer as I love to support local businesses.

My wife's cranberry walnut chicken salad sub was also tasty but the chicken salad was extremely sparse.... less than 1/2" thick for the length of the sandwich. For a $27+ charge, the sandwiches were good but overpriced for what we got. The store, though, is very interesting and I would not hesitate to buy some of their imported goods, but doubt that I would get sandwiches again. Too bad, I had high hopes. After living in Framingham almost 7 years, I have yet to find a great sub shop. When we lived in the North Shore, great sub shops seemed to be everywhere.

This place happened to be exactly in the middle between where my friend and I live, so we decided to meet here for lunch. The street corn flatbread was tasty and cheesy, and my friend's fried chicken sandwich was also good. Service was friendly if a bit slow. After lunch, we went apple picking which was I think $34 for a peck which is pretty standard nowadays. They had macoun, macintosh, cortland, and some other varieties, but I prefer my macs. The apple orchard is very small compared to other places I've been, but served its purpose. Would have been nice to have a couple ladders in the orchard for easier access to apples on top. Would have also been nice if the bathrooms were not portapotties--my friend and I chose to hold it lol. They also have a pen with chickens, ducks, and goats that look fairly happy and well cared for. We came on a weekday so it was not crowded at all, but I would imagine it gets packed on weekends.
