Fledgling Farmstead is a diversified family farm in North Tunbridge operating on 190 acres of land that have been farmed since the late 1700s. The 190-acre property is a mix of forest, pasture, and an acre of organically-managed annual crops. Fledgling grows a wide array of vegetables season-long and plant starts for spring plant sales. In addition, they raise 65 layer hens, a flock of mixed-breed sheep, and a small herd of Guernsey dairy cows. They sell their veggies, meat and eggs in their CSA and farm stand, the Chelsea Farmers Market and several wholesale accounts. The farm also manages an event space that hosts community events, camping through HipCamp, and the farm's own music and arts festival called Fledge Fest.
