Hornstra Farms Opening Ice Cream Stand and Store in the Former Peaceful Meadows Space in Whitman This Month

A few months ago, it was reported that the family behind a farm on the South Shore that includes an ice cream stand has bought another farm with an ice cream stand not too far away, and now we have learned that it is just about ready to open.

According to a Facebook post from the business, Hornstra Farms in Norwell is putting the finishing touches on its second location which is at the site of the former Peaceful Meadows in Whitman, with a comment from them saying that it could be debuting as soon as this week. Once it opens, the new location of Hornstra Farms will include both an ice cream stand and a farm store, and it will also include a dairy farm. 

The Peaceful Meadows ice cream stand, which said farewell this summer, dated back to 1962 though the farm itself was established several decades earlier.

The address for the new location of Hornstra Farms is 60 Bedford Street, Whitman, MA, 02382. The website for the business is at https://hornstrafarms.com/

[November 18 update: According to multiple sources, Hornstra Farms is now open in Whitman.]
