About Coll's Farm

Coll’s Farm has been serving the public in our current form since the year 1965, but our history extends much earlier. In 1930 Archie Coll, Sr. began raising chickens at a farm on Nutting Road in Jaffrey. Time rolled forward to the mid 1960s when Archie Sr. and Eva (Sirois) Coll retired from farming.

Following their retirement, their son Archie, Jr. and wife, Helen (Van Blarcom) Coll, started producing brown eggs for local markets and began their farm stand operation. By the mid-to-late 1970s, the egg business at Coll’s Farm had greatly expanded and included organic and natural egg production from cage-free hens.

It was during this time that Archie and Helen were approached by a natural food industry extending an offer to distribute eggs throughout New England. After accepting this offer Coll’s Farm expanded to four then five farms, all of which raised cage-free chickens whose eggs would be widely distributed.

Finally, during the year 2000, Mark and his wife Lori (Couture) Coll purchased the family business from Archie and Helen and expanded it to its local presence. Today under the continued leadership of Mark and Lori, Coll’s Farm has blossomed into a delightful, must-visit destination, specializing in farm fresh and organic produce, unique farm products, deli with eat in comfort, and complete meat & fish market.
