A Look at Copper Hill Farm

 

Who are they?

 

There’s nothing quite as comforting and delicious as

a plate of bacon and eggs on a weekend morning; and

what makes that breakfast even better? Buying that

very food from a local farmer who is proud and passionate about the product he raises. Copper Hill Farm was started in 2009 by Greg Hazelton and sits right up the street from the market in Somers, Connecticut. Greg brings pasture-raised pork, chicken, and eggs to the Ellington Farmers Market on a weekly basis and also has a variety of heirloom vegetables to pick from as well. Born and raised in Ellington, Greg is thrilled to bring quality, clean food to the market every week

What do they sell?

 

Copper Hill Farm is most well-

known for their pasture-raised

pork products and eggs, and if you

stop by their booth, it’ll be difficult to leave without a slab of nitrate-free bacon (a best seller!) and a dozen eggs. Ya know, for that Sunday morning bacon and eggs you’ve been thinking about! In fact, Copper Hill Farm sells a whopping 80 dozen eggs every market! All of Copper Hill’s livestock is pasture-raised including their Heritage breed pigs, chickens, and thanksgiving turkeys. Copper Hill also grows and sells a wide-variety of heirloom vegetables of all shapes, sizes, and varieties.
