What they do
March Farms is a fourth-generation [[farm|family farm]] in Bethlehem, Connecticut, offering seasonal pick-your-own berries and fruit alongside greenhouse production. The operation runs an annual “[[ladybug|Ladybug]] Liberation” in its greenhouses — releasing lady beetles as natural predators of aphids and other crop-damaging insects — as part of an integrated-pest-management approach. The family also maintains a memorial scholarship in honor of a family member lost in a farm accident.
Why it’s listed
Two filters. (1) Fourth-generation continuity on the same land — multi-generational small Connecticut farms are exactly the substrate-builder population [[directory|the directory]] tracks. (2) Stated IPM practice with a specific, named protocol (lady-beetle releases for aphid control), not vague “we care about the environment” copy. That’s the editorial line.
