100 Fruit Farm

Hundred Fruit Farm is a small-scale, permaculture-based farm located in Buckingham, in the heart of Bucks County, Pennsylvania—just minutes from New Hope, Doylestown, and Newtown, and within easy reach of both Philadelphia and New York City. Founded in 2015 by Adam Dusen, a seasoned permaculture farmer and educator with experience across five continents, the farm is rooted in a mission to regenerate the land, support the local food movement, and serve as a model for ecological farming in an increasingly suburbanized region.

Once a horse farm and hay field, the ten-acre property—set at the foot of Buckingham Mountain—has a rich agricultural history and ideal growing conditions, including gently sloping silty loam soil and a spring-fed pond. Adam and his family began by securing the land with a deer fence and have since transformed it into a thriving ecosystem of fruit trees, gardens, pastured animals, and pollinator habitat. Each year brings new additions, from perennial crops and food forests to small livestock and innovative growing systems.

In a county known for both its exceptional farmland and its struggle with urban sprawl, Hundred Fruit Farm stands as a quiet act of preservation and resistance. The farm not only helps maintain the region’s agricultural character but also provides vital refuge for birds, pollinators, amphibians, and native plants increasingly displaced by development and chemical landscaping. It has also become a local hub for permaculture education and community building, offering workshops, social gatherings, and design services that connect people with the land and each other.

Hundred Fruit Farm is more than a source of nutrient-dense, chemical-free food—it's a living example of how thoughtful land stewardship, small-scale farming, and community resilience can thrive even at the edge of sprawl.
