Green Leaf Farms in Concord has been a part of the Safrit family for over a century and offers grass-fed beef, pastured eggs, and pork raised with sustainable practices like intensive mob grazing, enriching both the soil and livestock health.


The farm’s rustic barn and outdoor spaces provide a charming backdrop for weddings, reunions, and yoga retreats. 🛁 Their newest addition is the Tub Shack, offering a relaxing retreat.
