Lexington Community Farm

Lexington Community Farm (LexFarm) is a 5-acre year-round organic vegetable farm in Lexington, MA, run as a nonprofit. Farm store, CSA, and child-education programs (ages 6mo–12y), with explicit food-access infrastructure: SNAP matching, food-pantry donations, and need-based scholarships.

What they do

Lexington Community Farm (LexFarm) is a [[barre-ma|Massachusetts]] nonprofit operating a 5-acre year-round organic [[vegetable-farm|vegetable farm]] at 52 Lowell Street in Lexington. The farm distributes through a farm store and CSA shares, and runs children’s education programs from ages 6 months through 12 years. Its mission centers on connecting residents to the land they live on and the food they eat — across income levels — and the operation is explicit about food-access equity: SNAP matching funds, donation of surplus organic produce to local food pantries, and need-based scholarships for financially disadvantaged families.

Why it’s listed

Four substantive filters: certified-style organic at meaningful scale (5 acres, year-round), nonprofit structure that reinvests rather than extracts, explicit food-access infrastructure (SNAP matching + scholarships + pantry donations), and deep children’s education programming. Together these put LexFarm beyond the usual community-farm profile — the food-justice work is built into the model, not added as PR.
