King Farm was started by Dana King's grandparents, George PeteKing and his wife Caroline in 1922 as a dairy farm. They sold milk to neighbors and friends as well as in the towns of Townsend, Lunenburg and Fitchburg MA. Their children, Wally, Albert, Paul and Priscilla all grew up in the old farmhouse at King Farm. Wally BumpsKing ( Dana's father ) was born in that old farmhouse in 1923. King Farm was sold out of the family in the 1970's, but in 1975 Dana and Barbara King, with all they had, were able to buy back about a 10 acre portion, to start a greenhouse operation. Now much of the original farm land has been bought back in parcels of 35 to 40 acres at a time. King Farm Inc is now one of the larger wholesale growers in the area. With the addition of the new greenhouse, we now have 4 acres of plastic or glass covered ranges and many acres of outside growing area. We have periodically increased our plant production over the years and have not only kept up with the latest technology used in the industry, but have often been the leader. We have one of the top growers in the area, David Weidman and a staff to be proud of. King Farm sells to farm stand retailers, garden centers, and other plant producers through out most of the New England area, although much of our product stays in about a 50 mile radius of Townsend. WE DO NOT SELL TO MASS-MERCHANTS! As you will see from our catalogue we grow a wide variety of plant material. Our excellent staff of 35 to 40 people at peak season enables us to provide this for our customers. We feel we are large enough to supply your needs and small enough to really care about them. We have always felt that it's really simple if you do well - we do well!! Our sons, Brett and Bart got their early work training at King Farm. Dana's parents, Wally ( Bumps ) and Gini ( Luby ) have been very involved and a tremendous help to our business since 1980. At one time or another, aunts, uncles, cousins, ( Priscilla King Smith, Paul King, George and Bill King, Lenny Smith, Jr. ), have all worked here at the farm. Our son Brett and cousin Kevin Smith have done excavation and landscape projects at our farm as it grew. Now the next generation, our grandchildren, Breanna and Dana have started their work training here and we can't wait for our other grandchildren Alyssa and Jared to be old enough to get started!! As you can see, in the American farm tradition family is very important to us. We also consider all of our staff family ; some have been with us for over 30 years. It does not seem possible! We are in the process of turning some of the business over to our son, Bart. Bart with Dana's guidance, has been helping to run King Farm and is doing an outstanding job. It is a joy to watch him operate. Both Dana and Bart are graduates of U-Mass Amherst. Building and running King Farm has been hard work, as all successful businesses are, but it has been wonderful and an extremely rewarding experience. The farm has provided our family with more than we could have ever imagined. We are both very proud of and thankful King Farm
