Mon to Fri 10am to 5pm · Sat & Sun 10am to 3pm

The Nagel Farmstead Emporium.

A 6,000-square-foot farm store and bakery at the heart of the property. The things our regulars come back for, all under one roof.

What you'll find

Inside the Emporium

A big store with a deep shelf: specialty foods you'll only find at Abbey Farms, a bakery with fresh-made items and gluten-free options, and our own produce in season. Every purchase supports the monks of Marmion Abbey and their mission.

Bottles of Marmion Abbey ale on the Emporium shelves

Marmion Abbey Beer

Our own highly rated Marmion Abbey beer, brewed for the farm, and only available here. By the bottle and the case.

Jars of Abbey Farms jams and sauces on the Emporium shelves

Jams & Sauces

Sauces, salsas, dressings, dips, preserves, and butters. The shelf people make the trip for.

Spices and seasonings on the Emporium shelves

Spices & Seasonings

Pantry staples to take the farm home with you.

Toys, plush, and novelty gifts at the Abbey Farms Emporium

Gifts & Novelties

Curated kitchen and home goods, toys, apparel, and bath items, including soaps handcrafted on site by the monks.

Most pantry goods are products we carry, not made on the farm. The cider donuts are ours.
