Beach Plum Farm is located less than two miles from Cape May’s historic downtown. Established by owners Curtis Bashaw and Will Riccio, this working farm is open to the public and welcomes visitors from near and far.
Since 2008, Beach Plum Farm has grown to produce over 100 kinds of fruits and vegetables as well as chickens, eggs and Berkshire Hogs. The Farm provides produce and meats to local Cape May restaurants including The Ebbitt Room, the Blue Pig Tavern, the Rusty Nail, the Boiler Room, Louisa’s Café and more.
Since 2018, Beach Plum Farm has welcomed overnight guests in a charming collection of cottages. Our talented team seeks to provide guests with an authentic experience—in the words of MICHELIN, “This is another side of Cape May, not just literally but figuratively as well.” Beach Plum Farm is honored to be one of only two hotels selected for the award in the state of New Jersey.
The MICHELIN Guide selects hotels that significantly add to your experience as a traveler, each vetted and judged excellent in five categories: architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, overall personality and character, value for the price, and a significant contribution to the guest experience in a particular setting.FALL AT THE farm
