Rooted in Family. Growing for the Future.
Rooted in Family
The story of Kelly’s Farm is rooted in history, community, and family.This property has been an important part of Cheshire’s agricultural heritage since 1757. For decades, local families have visited this farm to pick apples, purchase fresh produce, and create memories that span generations.
For Bill and Sandy Cunningham, the farm’s story is deeply personal. Long before becoming its stewards, they spent countless autumn afternoons here with their four children, walking through the orchard and creating family traditions of their own. When the opportunity arose to help preserve the property, it felt like a natural extension of their connection to both the land and the community.
Today, the Cunningham family is honored to continue the next chapter of this historic farm while preserving the traditions that have made it such a cherished destination.
The Story Behind the Name
Kelly's Farm carries a name that is deeply meaningful to the Cunningham family. The farm is named in honor of Kelly Cunningham, whose joy, kindness, and spirit left a lasting impact on everyone who knew her. By naming the farm in her memory, the family hopes to create a place where others can gather, celebrate traditions, and make memories together—just as their own family did for many years. Every season, every visit, and every new tradition created at Kelly's Farm reflects that vision.
