About us
Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food
We’re a Family of Farmers
Welcome to Mendon Acres, where our doors are always open to offer you not just exceptional fruit and produce but an immersive working farm experience. Nestled in the heart of our community, we are committed to practices that are not only low in spray but socially responsible, ecologically sound, and economically viable. Here, agriculture meets heritage, and every harvest tells a story.
How We Got Started
The Journey of Mendon Acres
Our story began in 2017 on what was once just raw land. Farmer Doug, with a rich heritage in farming and an extensive background in horticulture and business administration, decided to lay the foundation of what would soon become Mendon Acres. This wasn’t just the start of a farm; it was the revival of a legacy. After years in the banking sector, the call of the land was too strong for Farmer Doug to ignore. With the support of his family, he turned his vision into reality, building the farm from the ground up, seed by seed, acre by acre. Mendon Acres is a testament to what passion, dedication, and a dream can achieve.
Our Mission
Cultivating Connections
At Mendon Acres, our mission transcends beyond farming. We aim to reconnect people with the source of their food, to showcase the importance of sustainable agriculture, and to foster a community that values the earth and its bounty. By adopting low-spray and eco-friendly farming practices, we’re not just nurturing the land but also ensuring the health and well-being of our customers. Our commitment is to provide fresh, high-quality produce while upholding the principles of social responsibility and ecological balance.
