Consider Augustine’s Farm on King Street as a destination for your holiday fixings! Everything still looks like summer at the farm stand, and everything is very fresh.
“We have just-cut spinach, good tomatoes, delicious apple cider, honey, fresh eggs, and much more,” Kathy said on Sunday, adding that customers care that there are no pesticides used in the production of any of the produce at the arm stand.
“For Thanksgiving we’ll have mixed nuts, dates and dried Kadota figs,” she continued.
The farm stand features a wide variety of vegetables and fruits for Thanksgiving, and it’s nice to support a local mom and pop operation.
There are several varieties of apples, multiple types of squash, and some unique fruits, including figs.
Augustine’s also sells fresh eggs from Kathy’s flock, honey from her own bee hives, jams, jellies, pickled beets and much more.

The farm stand will be open through Thanksgiving and into the Christmas season (up to December 20) with Balsam wreathes that Kathy makes and decorates with dehydrated fruit including apples, oranges and pears and finishes with a red velvet ribbon.
“There’s no plastic. No junk,” Kathy said. “We’ll also have rings of holly wreathes and Christmas trees.”
And of course, Augustine’s is known for selling fresh cut Christmas Trees that hold their needles much longer than trees from the big box stores. So plan a visit for your Thanksgiving table and return for your Christmas tree.
Augustine’s Farm is located at 1332 King Street in Greenwich.
