The Future of Sweet Berry
Sweet Berry Farm is where history, community, and the land come together.
For more than four decades, these 100 acres on Aquidneck Island have been more than fields and orchards— they’ve been a gathering place, a living classroom, and a reminder of what happens when people care for the land with intention.
As we look toward the future, our goal is simple: to honor the legacy of this farm while sustaining it in thoughtful new ways. By investing in regenerative agriculture, supporting local food systems, and creating meaningful experiences for our community, we hope to ensure Sweet Berry remains a place where people can connect— to the seasons, to the land, and to each other— for generations to come.
Our Mission / Values
Sweet Berry Farm exists to cultivate a deeper connection between people, food, and the land.
We believe farms should nourish more than just the crops they grow. They should nourish communities, protect the ecosystems they depend on, and create spaces where people can slow down and experience the rhythms of the seasons.
By combining thoughtful land stewardship, regenerative farming practices, and welcoming community spaces, we are working to ensure this land remains vibrant and productive for generations to come.

Healthy soil is the foundation of a healthy farm. Through regenerative farming practices—such as composting, cover cropping, reduced tillage, and thoughtful crop rotations—we are working to restore and strengthen the land so it becomes healthier each year.

Our farm, market, and café are built around the belief that local food matters. By working closely with regional farmers, growers, and makers, we help create a vibrant food network that supports both our community and our local economy.
