Mission

The mission of Buy CT Grown is to bring Connecticut's 4,000 farms and their various offerings - from ripe-to-perfection fruits and vegetables to wholesome meats, dairy and seafood; from sweet honey and maple syrup to delicious wines and locally-sourced dining; from hundreds of varieties of plants and shrubs to Christmas trees and wreaths -  all closer to you, and in doing so, support local agricultural enterprises and contribute to the health and viability of Connecticut's rural economy. 

buyctgrown.com was created specifically to provide folks looking for fresh, healthy food and farm-related products in the Nutmeg State with a resource to find farms, CSA's, restaurants, nurseries, pick your own orchards, catering companies and much more... So please take a look around the site, search for your favorite foods and farm-related products, and let us know what you think! You can reach us at info@buyctgrown.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
