Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com introduces us to Dave Fleming of Shady Brook Farm. www.shadybrookfarm.com In 1913 Shady Brook started as a produce stand off the back of a truck by T. Herman Fleming. The farm expanded to 40 acres, growing crops that were delivered to wholesale markets and grocery stores in the Philadelphia area. In 1984, Shady Brook opened its first retail market with pick-your-own strawberries. In 1990 the market expanded from a produce stand into a barn that was moved from a neighboring farm. Seasonal events andfield trips were added in the early 1990’s. Over the next few decades, and under the management of the 4th generation of Flemings, Shady Brook Farm continued to grow into a large farm market complete with full service deli, homemade ice cream department (run by Uncle Dave’s Homemade Ice
Cream), garden center and pub; and has become a hub for top notch seasonal events.
