The Town of Bolton is proud to name Rockland Farm as October’s Business of the Month. What began nearly a century ago as a modest milk-delivery operation has grown into a vibrant local hub offering fresh products, community connections, and a lasting family legacy.
Rockland Farm has been part of Bolton for over 90 years. In the 1930s, Leonard L. and Alice Giglio cleared the land on South Road, milked cows, and delivered milk door-to-door. In the late 1960s, their son Leonard M. and his wife Karen expanded to bulk milk production, raising their two sons on the farm and serving the community until Leonard M.’s passing in 2017.
After the dairy closed in 2019, Leonard W. (Lenny) and his wife, Cheryl sought new ways to preserve the farm. They continued their long-running hay business and, in 2022, brought cows back to the barn to raise and sell locally grown beef. In 2024, they opened the Rockland Farm Shop, offering USDA-inspected beef and chicken raised on their farm, fresh chicken eggs, beef tallow, organic herbs, and other farm products directly to the community.
This October marks the one-year anniversary of the farm shop. Join Rockland Farm October 4–5 for a weekend of farm tours, goat feedings, product discounts, giveaways, and a sneak peek at holiday gift ideas. The farm welcomes visitors during shop hours—Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 4–7 PM; Saturday and Sunday 9 AM–3 PM—to meet the animals and enjoy the scenic grounds.
Congratulations to Rockland Farm on this well-deserved recognition. Stop by 50 South Road, Bolton, to celebrate their milestone and experience a true piece of Bolton history.
