Thank You!
Thank you to everyone who supported us this year. From our farmers' market customers, to our wholesale clients, and our generous family and friends, we've been able to build a farm and a business. We especially want to thank our CSA members. Your early financial support got our farm off the ground and your enthusiasm sustained us throughout the season. Thank you for joining us in 2014 and thank you to everyone who has already joined for 2015.

Looking Back, Looking Forward
This time last year we were figuring out how to start a farm from scratch at a new location, expecting a baby, and praying it all worked out. Looking back, we're blown away by how successful 2014 has been. In little over a year our farm has grown from a bare field with no amenities to one with a well, a greenhouse, a large hoop house, a smaller moveable hoop house, a carport-turned-wash station, 150 blueberry bushes, 3/4 of an acre of trial winter wheat, 3 acres of vegetables, and more tractors and implements than you can shake a stick at.

We're also happy to officially announce that we bought the property adjacent to the farm so we'll be living on-farm again! This opens up all kinds of future possibilities. Here's what we have planned for the next couple of years:
  • Pole-barn with cold storage, improved wash station, and (much improved) CSA pick-up area
  • Double the size of our local CSA
  • Expand our CSA to include drop-offs in NYC
  • Continue to extend our growing season in Winter and early Spring through hoop houses and low tunnels
  • Compile extensive list of recipes on our website
  • Herb and flower cutting garden
  • Apple trees
  • Continue to improve farm soil through compost, cover-cropping, and manure.
We're growing quickly, but each decision is made to increase efficiency so we can grow the best produce at the lowest cost for our customers. Also, we are constantly trying to improve the experience for our customers, especially for our CSA members.

We love growing good food for our community and we couldn't do it without you. Thank you for your support.

We wish you a happy New Year and look forward to growing together in 2015.

~Eleanor, Patrick, and Ernest
