I absolutely love Wilson Farm! I talk about it much more than anyone probably wants to hear. The flower and succulent collection that's available is absolutely amazing. They have beautiful arrangements as well! The bakery is wonderful and filled with cutely decorated desserts. The fruit and vegetables are always fresh, as they stock what's in season. I love the fact that they host events on the weekend such as cycling or a specific food-themed day! Such a lovely place. read more

Healthy, fresh produce, delicious bakery & pre-made meals, beautiful flowers. Shopping here is calming.

Amazing selection of produce, bakery items, cheese - pretty much runs the spectrum of awesomeness. Lots of meats, prepared foods - oh, I could go on. Go. read more

Great place! They have really good flower sections here and they also have some really cool events! They have a chocolate one in February that's pretty cool. read more

I come here once a year around Thanksgiving because my aunt refuses to get food anywhere else and I can see why. If I had a car I'd come for any dinner party I was throwing to get good produce and sauces and cheese and pasta and everything else all in once place. Lots of parking and they have an overflow lot during busy times (Thanksgiving, etc). read more

the free samples are amazing. the service there and all the activities are awesome for kids. the energy there is awesome. I recommend

Meh. I am disappointed every time I come here. This past weekend I came to purchase a wreath. Parked across the street to avoid the fray of crazy Lexington people who will mow you over in order to get the closest parking spot. The wreath was pretty and priced the same as other local farm stands. What annoyed me was I also wanted to grab a loaf of Pain D'Avignon cranberry bread. It was $12.99. What??? It is $8.99 at Whole Foods. Crazy prices. It is sad when Whole Foods looks affordable. Then I went out to get a $1 hot chocolate and cookie from a little holiday stand staffed by young women. I asked them what group I was supporting (assuming they were from Lexington HS). They looked at me like I was crazy. Wilson Farm can't offer that as a fundraiser for a school group? Shameful. read more

Very Disappointed. $50.00, 13 lb Thanksgiving turkey was Terrible. Popper never popped and turkey half cooked after hours of cooking. In addition, half of the potatoes were rotten on inside upon peeling. Will not buy for Thanksgiving dinner again from them. Could have done better at Market Basket. read more

If I could, I'd give them negative stars. Used to shop twice a week, every week for decades. Last year, I had purchased course salt vs fine salt, went back the next day to exchange, was told I couldn't. I didn't have my receipt but right there on top of the salt was their sticker. With their name, and the price. Went home and threw out the salt. I felt humiliated. Since then, I've only shopped randomly. Yesterday I bought a pie and we found hair inside the filling. Today, I took my receipt with the pie to return, was treated like a criminal. Never ever again will I shop Wilson Farm. Customer service holds zero value to them. I'm happy to take my $ to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Wegmans, anywhere but there. read more

Wilson Farm Bakery made our cake for our baby shower this past weekend. I love simple elegance and they did just that. Our cake was Pinterest perfection and it tasted amazing, not too sweet like a lot of other bakeries. Pricing was fair as well. Highly recommended! read more

Went to Wilson's for my a fresh 80$ Turkey ,much to my surprise half of it was frozen. Which obviously didn't cook even very disappointing "fresh means not frozen" I guess anything goes today read more

The Thanksgiving crowds were in full force, but the team at Wilson Farm had their game day plan running full tilt. Their pre-made sides were excellent, and I even got some flowers for the host. Since Russo's closed, Wilson Farm is the Go To for the produce... read more

Fresh, delicious veggies, fruits and beyond. Superb seasonal selection. Prepared foods are also so great.

This is a full service produce "stand", more like a small grocery. They have a very large variety of fruits, vegetables, plants and flowers, even meats. The products are displayed for maximum appeal, with the feel of a roadside stand in the country. It is huge, especially in the warmer weather when they seat up additional displays outside. I only gave them 3 's because a) the majority of their produce is from far out of state (even in August) and b) their prices are exorbitant ($3.99 lb for New Jersey tomatoes). I can get well travelled produce at a local grocery for much less. The reason I go to such a market is for LOCAL produce or better yet, the stand's own. There was much less than I would have expected this time of year. It is, however, a lovely shopping experience, so if that is your goal, this is your place. read more

Wilson Farm - Outside produce display - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Lexington, Massachusetts

Wilson Farms is actually one of the main reasons my family and I moved to Lexington. It is such a beautiful, energetic place with fantastic products--everything from fresh produce to gorgeous plants (indoor and outdoor), to customized cakes created in the bakery. My all time favorite however, is their floral department. To the customers complaining about the price, you've clearly never been to another flower shop. They have amazing, doable prices for gorgeous centerpieces. The lovely girls who work there also create these exquisite handheld bouquets,that I love to get for gifts or for myself. The quality of the flowers is top-notch. They have a large variety of flowers, that you can ask the workers to either make a bouquet or an arrangement with, and they always do so gladly. I also HIGHLY recommend going to the farm in the fall. The beautiful mum plants, pumpkins everywhere, and the smell of freshly cooked 50 cent apple cider donuts are to DIE for. I have been a customer for 6 years now, and I couldn't dream of shopping anywhere else. read more

Every year for the past 5 years, we've ordered our FRESH turkeys from Wilson's farm. This year was no different (why mess with perfection). BUT this year we pick up our FRESH turkey the day before Thanksgiving, get it home, and IT'S FROZEN SOLID. Hey Wilson's farm thanks for RUINING Thanksgiving! read more

I love everything about this place. Here's the run down: 1. Cider Donuts and Caramel Apples - they have their own little stand outside. Who doesn't need to have a hot cider donut?? Yum. 2. Wide Array of Pumpkins & Squashes - ever since I saw Martha's Halloween edition (you know, with the white carved pumpkin with the parsnip nose), I've been on the look out for white pumpkins. My (very short) search ended at Wilson's. So many pumpkins. (Also: there's such thing as a peanut pumpkin. It's pretty awesome). 3. The market. So much fresh produce! I went wild over all of the great stuff in there. Not only was there a ton of awesome produce, but also a great flower selection and there were samples! I love samples... It is a total zoo on the weekends, but it is very much worth maneuvering through the crowds to check it out. read more

Wilson Farm - funky pumpkins - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Lexington, Massachusetts

Yes, very expensive, but the it's often worth going just to take in the displays, particularly around Halloween. The store is beautifully decorated. I don't do the bulk of my shopping here due to cost, but it's where I go when I need a hard to find ingredient or fresh bread. read more

Excellent quality fruits and vegetables. A large selection of plants, herbs, veg starters. Mouthwatering bakery and good to go meals. They also have a small selection of organic meats, cheeses and all manner of goodness! It's a bit pricy and I wish there were some smaller pre packaged veggies, but all in all A+ all the way! read more

Overall a relaxing experience. It's just nice to be at a farm on a beautiful day. Here's what i like: Their own grown veggies etc are at good prices. Recently they had pea tendrils (Do Meow) one of my favorite Chinese vegetables. They prepared them uncooked in a nice dressing which was good (the next week I had some at Number One Taste in Belmont cooked Canton style and that was darn good too). During the summer you can get red lettuce, cucumbers and so much more at good prices with very good taste. They also have a great selection of plants - vegetables, fruits etc - along with knowledgeable staff to tell you how to grow them. The bakery is pretty good too. Side note: they sell Nashoba bakery items significantly cheaper than WF last time I looked (might've changed). And they often sample good stuff (storewide - not the pea tendrils above) which is a nice treat. In Autumn, the corn is absolutely spectacular. You have to load up. We were eating it every night such a treat. And overall, if you're having a stressful day, just walk around outside and in, among the flowers and plants. You may find yourself much relaxed. Not bad for a farm that's just down the street from so many people and easily accessible off Route 2. To be fair, on the flipside, they will have some items at expensive prices - prices I will not pay. Certain produce is priced too high at certain times of the year and grocery items can be a bit pricey. Interestingly, they carry the full line of Bob's Mills stuff (or whatever the name of that brand is). We recently bought pickling cucumber, strawberry, basil, mint, cilantro and marigolds from the garden center. Our skill with the strawberries isn't so good but everything else is growing well. read more

What can I say...THE BEST fresh, home-grown produce. I go to Wilson's in the summer every week when their own produce is abundant. I stock up and freeze a bunch of it too so I have my own local, frozen veggies/fruits for the winter. The prices on their own produce beats places like Whole Foods in quality and price and when you pit them agains the farmers' markets, you always do better in price at Wilson's for comparable or better quality fruits/veggies. Plus...it's local...all grown behind the farm or at their other farm location. I love supporting this business and continue to be a proud Wilson Farm shopper. Exceptional quality and being able to support a long-time, local business without breaking the bank...how can you go wrong? read more

I've been coming here for years. I love it especially during the Holliday's. Fresh Everything! Friendly owners and staff make it one of the beSt farms I've shopped at. I absolutely recommend Wilson to friends!! read more

I came in today for a hot and fresh apple cider donut. When I asked the girl if she can grab me one that was just made as opposed to the ones that have been laying out (because I want them hot), she gave me attitude and said "like okay, but they're literally the same thing." Like okay, I know that, you're also literally two steps away from the hot ones so just grab me one. Rude. read more

I wish I could give them zero stars, but I can't. I live nearby and go to Wilson Farms often, and typically love what they have. Great produce, great prepared foods, etc. Usually, I order my Thanksgiving turkey from a local turkey farm but it's Covid and they ran out early. So I called Wilson Farms, several weeks ahead of time. I MADE SURE they were fresh, not frozen, which I was assured of on the phone. I picked my turkey up and it seemed frozen. The woman told me it had a "hard shell," that they don't freeze their fresh turkeys, that it must have been one of the birds close to the top of the cooling unit they use. No worries, she told me. Soak it in water. Well, (and note it's Thanksgiving Day when I post this), the turkey, after sitting in a fridge for 24 hours, is still frozen solid. Not just the shell. It's been in the sink with water for hours. Inside is still frozen. NEVER buy your turkey here unless you're prepared for the equivalent of a frozen, run of the mill, anywhere turkey. But at twice the price. read more

Great place for fresh produce. A little spendy. Better quality than Russo's. GREAT SERVICE. crappy parking and traffic. Baked goods and prepped foods are awesome. You can get a wide variety of produce including a lot of asian greens in non wilty states of edible-ness. read more

Oh MMM GEEE.... my mom and I stopped here just because the number of cars in the lot was impressive. We were enthralled with the produce and cut flowers. Everything looked so nice and fresh! We picked up several things from their bakery: Irish soda bread, pastries, strawberry shortcake. YUM. It was St Paddy's weekend so we picked up a corned beef. By far the best one I have has in AGES. I will be back for sure! read more

This farm and farm stand is beautiful. There's a good amount of parking but if you go on the weekend it can get pretty busy so prepare to wait for a spot. Their produce is awesome and a pretty good deal. Most fresh items I buy beat the grocery store I normally go to. Their prepared foods are really good and you pay the standard prices.. no real deal but the quality it great. Other 'standard' groceries they have can be a deal or can be expensive.. you should know your prices for sure. Overall, I really like this place and enjoy shopping here. Like I said, the farm is beautiful, grounds are well manicured and the variety is great. read more

We were very disappointed in the lovely, very large, fruit basket my husband received as a gift for Thanksgiving. It was tidily wrapped and put together with various types of fruit, a bottle of water, chips, etc. AND an old soggy blueberry cake. A blueberry cake is my husband's favorite, and he decided to have a slice upon viewing it. Immediately, upon biting into it, he realized it was not for consumption and the disappointment shown in his eyes and upon his face. He is not well and it was a sheer let down from the anticipation. Upon calling the baking manager he offered for me to come into the store and he would give me another one. I advised him I do not live close by and it would not be possible. All he had to say was, "sorry". Needless to say, I would not purchase a very expensive fruit basket from Wilson Farm, as a gift, and present the recipient with disappointment. read more

Everything good in the other reviews is correct, and there are definitely things I will go back to get, particularly the corn chowder and the corn and chorizo pudding (its like a casserole thing) HOWEVER My GOD, the people! And it's not, as others have said, a question of there being too many people. I can deal with that. It's the QUALITY of the people, not the QUANTITY. Wilson Farm customers are the sort that are right in the way of what you're trying to get to, they KNOW they're in the way, and they don't give a damn. You can wait. Or not. They don't care. They move out of the way for no one. Even when they're actually done and just want to stand there in order to present an obstacle. It's really like a microcosm of society breaking down there. I almost want to say to these snotty people, "Look, I'm way bigger than you. If we're not going to be polite to each other, I can just knock you into next week and then take my time choosing strawberries." I don't, because I'm determined to be better than that, but it's just unnecessary how rude the customers are in this place. read more

So last spring I watched Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" for the first time in at least a decade. Something that really caught my ears in it was that the seven dwarfs were all crazy for gooseberry pie. I had never heard of such a berry - but being berry crazy - I needed to find them. I went to Shaws, talked with their head produce person. He had never heard of them. I called around all of Boston - nobody knew what I was talking about. Finally a friend told me to call Wilson Farms. They knew exactly what I was talking about and told me that they'd have them in a couple weeks (they weren't quite in season). Sure enough - they had them within the month! When I went in to pick them up - I was so impressed that I filled half my refrigerator with fresh, locally grown produce. I now go every week to load up. I try to get something that I've never tried before every time I visit there. I have made some fantastic discoveries this way - mangosteens are to die for, rambutan is very tasty and just plain fun to eat, cara caras are delicious, I could go on forever... There are a couple older gentleman that work there that seem to know everything. Whenever I'm unsure about which variety to get or something like that - I ask them and they always know. They have yet to steer me astray. Produce is simply better at Wilson Farms. For example - I am a clementine junky. I go through a box per week at least. Now I don't know why this is - but the clementines at Wilson Farms are much better than those at Shaws - they're larger, easier to peel, and tend to have less seeds. It's very strange, but true! You will probably pay a bit more for clementines and everything else than at, say, Shaws - but it's worth it. Wilson Farms is nearly perfect. The location is a huge downside (way out in Lexington - certainly not on the T!) and it can be very busy at times. But it's worth it. It's so completely worth it. read more

Taste the Tension! You know, this place gets a very solid 4 stars for the quality and freshness of their produce, bakery and prepared foods. They work hard, and it shows. BUT, it attracts the most wound-up, rude and tense people I have ever seen collect in one place on a regular basis. Stay away on weekends if you can, because that's when the parking lot turns into a maddening tour-de-force of intense "zombie like" shoppers, while you are destined to stay on the crawl around the parking lot like a piece of luggage on an airport carousel. Again, this place *is* great, and deserves 4 stars, but go there during the week when the "intense zombies" are doing other things, like checking their stocks or complaining about socialized medicine. read more

As per my previous review, the quality and variety haven't been disappointing, the food is fantastic and all: but seriously, with all due respect, please hire new cashiers. The students you have working on the weekends are spoiled, uncultured brats. These kids have been raised with silver spoons and merely work to have a resume spot or because they're told by their parents they need a job. They are uninterested, rude and very unhelpful. I had two boys arguing about working out at the Lexington High gym while incorrectly ringing me up. I would have to interrupt them simply to get in a word. Are you serious? I've NEVER seen something like this before. It was such a maddening experience, this older woman who works there actually saw the frustration and came over and yelled at them. How embarrassing. A wonderful tip would be to educate your younger staff on the importance of customer service, perhaps even hire outside the regional area to attract hardworking kids who need an income, not do it out of boredom. This isn't the community place, it's important to have local farms to support, you have a wonderful business and the group of clients that come from all over the Boston area to shop here; please don't cause reason for me to avoid the 25 min drive and go to a Whole Foods. read more

Woah. Woah. Woah. We drove 25 minutes to Wilson Farm on a fall Sunday. So did everyone else...the line down the street to park let me know just how good this place had to be. I chose to park the car in the extra lot and not even bother parking closer. It was like walking into an Autumn oasis filled with cider donuts, smell of hay and crunching leaves, and every hue imaginable of pumpkins and gourds. We went straight for the line for cider donuts. You really can't go wrong and at $3 for a half dozen, it's a steal. They aren't the tiny ones you find at Boston Public Market--these are normal size cake donuts with the perfect amount of cinnamon sugar. After that, inside to peruse the produce, bakery, and basically get overwhelmed by all the many choices. I had no idea what to expect so I didn't really have a list. We ended up with a Tuscan pane loaf, some Wilson Farm apricot preserves, chocolate covered pretzels, eggs, and a bag of spinach. This place really has everything you need and most of it they make or is local to the state or New England area. We decided to grab a few pumpkins to take home for our apartment. They have a plethora of colors, sizes, and shapes of pumpkins and gourds. Plus several tastings inside and outside including a delicious risotto. Next time I will try to come on a weekday when it's not so hectic! read more

I hate Wilson Farms. I really do. They always manage to separate my money from my bank account in the most efficient ways. I mean come on, how many boxes of freshly made apple cider donuts does one man need? Do not answer that question, it is rhetorical. Is cider in season? Well there goes a J note while I stock up. Fresh French bread right out of the oven? Well dammit, now I need to skimp on my baby carrot budget for the week. Free chili samples? Well now I don't have room in my stomach for the five pounds of organic whatever I'm about to buy. Q: is this vegetable heirloom? A: probably. Q: does it even matter? A: probably not. Do come here if you want the best produce in the area (better than even Whole Foods). Do not come here if you want to find a parking space and also keep your sanity. read more

This place is a dream come true. I pulled into the (crowded, for good reason) parking lot and immediately after getting out of my car, I spied their gorgeous giant vegetable garden, the bright green plantlings sprouting out of the rich soil. It really made me want to hop the fence and wander around down there, so much so that when I got home I looked on their website and found that they offer free tours of the farm, you just have to call 781-862-3900 to sign up (groups and singles welcome!) After taking in the pretty landscape, I headed into the farm shop and was just floored at how perfect it was. Easy to find inventory? Check. Super helpful staff? Check. Ridiculously low prices on even more ridiculously fresh items? Check. I was there this weekend shopping for a party, and I expected to not be able to find everything I needed there, figuring I'd have to go to a conventional grocery store to find about half of what I needed. Turned out I found all but TWO items on my list! It was a really exciting moment when I realized that, but I guess you have to be a food nerd to share my excitement. I also expected to spend around 100 dollars, and my grand total was only about 50. And what did I get? A plethora of veggies, herbs, a big beautiful basil plant, a lot of different cheeses, local milk & cream, local eggs, butter, dates, super fresh and sweet strawberries, breads, the list goes on and on. And after checking out, I was treated to a wall of recipes that you can take to go. I literally love everything about this place. read more

family owned farm since 1800s! just fabulous. love their veggies, meats, fruits, cooked and uncooked. even FLOWERS. they even have fun events all the time, chili challenges, halloween hay rides, animal exhibits, grilled cheese sandwich wkend, etc etc. I just love how fresh their produce are and what great quality everything is. I'm lucky I get to go there once a week, and it's close by. read more

Went to Wilson's this weekend for their 2 Day Strawberry Festival and it was a cute little outing that I'd recommend and a perfect place for produce even if there is no special event going on. As you can tell in the other reviews, it's primarily a big grocery store with produce that is FRESH. I'll just add my two cents about why the Strawberry Fest was worthwhile. Best of all, they had free samples for the shoppers (strawberries, strawberry shortcake, chilled strawberry soup, bread with fig/onion spread or goat cheese) which was genius because thet were so yummy that not only did I go back for seconds but I also ended up buying one of each of the things we sampled. They had free hayrides through the farm crops, but I gotta say, me and my friends wish the driver had given a narrative like they do on the tram rides at Universal Studios - as in, "on your left, you'll see our 5 varities of lettuce, on our right you'll see a lot of dirt and so on". They also put on display (but not for tasting or diving into :() the largest strawberry shortcake ever made, which came in at a whopping 3,560 pounds. Plus, kids were able to make strawberry balloons (which looked remarkably like red balloons with magic marker spots and green construction paper for the tops.) It was all berrylicious. read more

Wilson Farm - Employees picking fresh crops! - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Lexington, Massachusetts

I have a serious soft spot in my heart for farm stands, and the 126-year-old Wilson Farm is my latest love. The produce is all locally grown and beyond fresh. They harvest over 100 different crops year-round--that's pretty darn impressive! They also have an amazing bakery section (I had to hold myself back from the cider donuts) and a mouthwatering selection of prepared foods and handmade pastas. I couldn't resist taking one of their homemade, biscuit-topped chicken pot pies home...Do you know how hard it is to find a decent pot pie around here?! They even make veggie and beef versions. It gets crazy busy during their strawberry festival (good luck with parking!), but you've never seen prettier berries. Plus, they had all kinds of strawberry-inspired samples for noshing while you shop. I can only imagine how hectic it must get during the holidays, but I would brave these crowds to get my farm stand fix :P read more

After not coming here for years I returned about a month ago and have went every weekend ever since. They sell fruits and veggies as you would assume given the name but they also have a good selection of high end grocery items and meats. Almost in the spirit of Whole Foods. In the fall they even sell Apple Cider Donuts. Wilson Farms is definitely worth making an out of the way trip for. read more
