Round Table Farm is a budding farm business located on a historic dairy farm in Hardwick, Massachusetts. Round Table Farm is run by queer women farmers who are passionate about building community, crafting beautiful products, and working in relationship with the land. Round Table Farm produces small batch, raw milk aged cheeses, as well as specialty cut flowers. Our cheese is currently being made with milk hauled from local dairy farms in order to support dairy farmers in Massachusetts (though Round Table Farm does have its own growing herd of goats and cows as well!). Our products are sold at Boston-area farmers’ markets, to New England cheese shops and restaurants, and through a local distributor.
