Bartlett’s Farm – Eye on Style

Bartlett’s Farm is widely known for their freshly harvested produce, quality groceries, tasty take-out, and a garden center chock full of colorful flowers and plants for both indoors and out. My window boxes are full of bright and cheery flowers and fragrant herbs from the farm. Bartlett’s is also a place I go when I am looking for that hard-to-find ingredient for a recipe or need to pull together an evening of entertaining friends in a hurry. Their New England cheese selection is outstanding for when I need a taste of Vermont, and their freshly prepared housemade spreads, dips, salads, and desserts are delicious. Pair a couple of those with a bottle of wine from their cooler and you’re all set for a picnic on the beach or a cozy night at home.

Bartlett's Farm | Nantucket Apart from the plants and food they are known for, did you know that Bartlett’s Farm also carries gifts, home accessories, and items for stylish and easy island entertaining? This is an area of the store I haven’t explored much on my visits to the farm, so I thought I’d look into it further.

Their nautical cutting boards in the shape of the island, whales, and ship wheels would make an ideal addition to any Nantucket table spread.
