Charming and family run since 1917, shopping at Barker's Farm is a wholesome experience that makes…read moreyou feel knit into the fabric of Seacoast living. A family runs Barker's Farm and their kids and grandkids work behind the counter. They offer a tightly curated selection of vegetables and had some of the best-tasting basil though in small bunches (it wasn't enough to make pesto but delicious in a Caprese salad). Pies, raw milk, tomatoes, fresh fennel sausage, this old farm is a slice of heaven to me. Both cash and credit cards accepted.

Lemme sum up: Fresh and varied produce, pick your own flowers, milk/bacon/eggs available, seasonal…read morebaked goods, and soap Barker's is the best little farmstand on the seacoast. They have everything you need for staples from the garden along with things that are just nice to have. Their food selection is terrific. I especially like their "salsa in a basket", which is a strawberry quart basket filled with onion, tomato, jalapeno, cilantro and tomatillo. Fingerling potatoes are available here! There is a cooler in the back with locally sourced bacon, milk, and eggs along with Swampscott soda. Depending on the time of year, you can get cider donuts, pies, brownies, and bread. In the "nice to have" department, Barker's has a couple of offerings. There are bouquets of cut flowers which you can purchase for half the price of what you could get at a florist or supermarket. Or, better yet, you can go out to their flower garden and pick your own bouquet! Sometimes they have dried chili strings or dried flower arrangements which you can hang as home decor. As you ring up your purchase, don't forget to grab a bar of handmade soap. (I'm partial to the Voodoo Spice.) If you just feel the need to get in there and grow your own, Barker's also has a green house. You can pick up seedlings for most garden vegetables there. They offer a good selection of annuals and perennials, as well. Barker's is not open year round. Let's face it, it's New England and winter is a time to live off the preserves that you made during the summer and fall. When late spring rolls around, make sure you put Barker's as your first stop for food shopping and pick up good local food to keep you going.
