History
Austin
Brothers Valley Farm was founded more than 130 years ago
by the Austin family. At that time, farms were numerous
in Western Massachusetts, with dairy the mainstay. Milk
production was the livelihood of Austin Farm until 2006.
Then the economy changed. But the Austin family's
commitment to farms and "buy local" continued
to remain strong.
Austin
Farm is situated on 130 acres of green pasture and is
operated by the fourth and fifth generation of Austins,
with the home front being the center for Austin Family
gatherings. Backed by tradition and family dedication,
Bill, Roxanne, Michael and Kathy have transitioned from
dairy farming to raising beef and pork.
