Welcome to
Springfield Farm
Springfield Farm is no ordinary place, and the Smith, Lafferty and Mason families are by no means traditional farmers. Three generations work and live on this beautiful, natural farm just North of Baltimore, Maryland. |

Sustainable agricultural methods are practiced where the animals are given nothing which is not natural – no hormones, antibiotics, chemicals, etc. All animals are offered free-range during the grass growing season. In addition to eggs (chicken, duck and goose), chicken, turkey, duck and goose are raised for meat. Beef (grass-fed and natural), grass-fed lamb, pork and rabbit are also available. All animals are treated humanely, allowed to associate with each other and cared for when sick using homeopathic remedies first.
All Springfield Farm marketing is direct to the user via personal visits, an annual newsletter, and the website. Products are processed under inspection, but the most important inspectors are our customers whom we encourage to roam the farm freely.
Springfield Farm has been in David Smith’s family since the 1600’s. The farm is some 67 acres of rolling countryside in northern Baltimore County, Maryland with four natural streams and untold springs bubbling up everywhere (hence the name). There is also a pond dominated by our flock of pet ducks, geese (Mother and Grim, of course), and watched over by our peafowl. Visitors are welcome.
