Originally established by Mr. Emmett C. Snead in 1937, Braehead Farm carries the legacy of Fredericksburg's agricultural past as the last remaining farm within the historic city limits. Once a dairy operation, the farm has transitioned through various forms of livestock management and now thrives as a farm market and community hub.
Braehead Farm employs Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to sustainably manage plant health, prioritizing prevention and early season control to address disease and pests. The farm is committed to crop rotation and other responsible agricultural methods to sustain their fields of fruits, vegetables, and flowers.
