During spring, we acquire lambs and Berkshire pigs and raise them on the farm during spring and summer in a free-range pastures. In addition to their ample grazing space, the lambs and pigs are served vegetable scraps created from the prep cooks in our kitchen. At the end of summer, they are taken to Blood Farm in Groton to be processed and then returned to Gibbet Hill Grill to be served at the restaurant. These lambs and pigs are raised, processed, and consumed in town of Groton, Massachusetts, making their carbon footprint minimal.

For over 60 years, Gibbet Hill has been home to a herd of award-winning Black Angus cattle. While herd size is not nearly large enough to supply the steaks for our restaurant, we do serve Gibbet Hill Black Angus ground beef in our burgers at Gibbet Hill Grill.

Each season we offer a series of half-day workshops on Gibbet Hill Farm. Our hands-on, immersive Field School experiences are both informative and fun. Gibbet Hill Farm offers a unique setting for learning and exploring, and our team is always eager to share their knowledge and expertise. These workshops not only educate but also create a lasting connection to the farm, fostering a deeper appreciation for where our food comes from and the importance of sustainable agriculture. We offer a wide variety of workshop subjects that include gardening, farm cocktails, bird walks, foraging, pickling & preserving, herbal tea blending, and more.

The Gibbet Hill Farm is located on 80 acres in Groton, MA. While traditionally a Black Angus cattle farm, we have expanded to grow produce for our restaurants and other businesses within the Webber Restaurant Group. Today, over three acres of produce is growing specifically for our chefs’ use. We grow several varieties of heirloom tomatoes, squashes and zucchini, heirloom beets, edible flowers, radishes, greens, peppers, beans, Swiss chard, specialty onions, herbs, and many other crops. We have a beehive that pollinates our field as well as provides honey for the restaurants. One of the goals of the farm is to expand the growing season so that local produce can be used in our businesses year-round. We accomplish that using a number of traditional techniques that allow us to extend the local food season into a twelve-month cycle. In the winter, we use a passive solar hoop house in our fields that allows us to grow spinach and salad greens well into December, and start harvesting again in April. Our chefs use traditional canning and pickling techniques to preserve any excess produce for use in the winter. We serve honey during the winter months that has been harvested from our own bees. During spring, we acquire lamb and raise them on the farm during spring and summer in a free-range pasture. At the end of summer, they are taken to Blood Farm in Groton, to be processed and then returned to Gibbet Hill Grill to be served at the restaurant. These lamb are born, raised, processed and consumed in town of Groton, Massachusetts. In addition to regularly supplying our restaurants and catering company with produce, we also hold a number of farm dinners each growing season. These dinners, which take place on the farm for cocktail hour and in the Barn at Gibbet Hill for the seated dinner, are sourced almost exclusively from our fields. They are an opportunity for our customers to tour the farm and see our current crop, talk with our farmers, and enjoy a meal with the people that are responsible for growing it. For information on our farm dinners and to be notified when one is coming up, please follow us on Facebook or sign up for our email notifications.

Joe Salisbury, Farm Manager

Armed with a degree in Plant, Soil & Insect Sciences from UMass Amherst, Gibbet Hill Farm Manager, Joe Salisbury, has been farming in New England for the last decade. From blueberry farming in the Berkshires, to greenhouse management in Deerfield to kitchen gardener at the historic Island Inn, off the coast of central Maine on Monhegan Island, Joe’s passion for sustainable farming has continued to grow. Working with the chefs at Island Inn, allowed him to reconnect small scale farming to the culinary world which ultimately led him to Gibbet Hill. When he’s not at work on the farm, you might find him learning a new language or in the kitchen incorporating freshly harvested produce he’s grown into pickled items or into a savory meal such as butternut squash mac & cheese or tarragon chicken.
