Essex Farm

We produce grass-fed beef, pastured pork, chicken, eggs, fifty different kinds of vegetables, milk, grains and flour, fruit, herbs, maple syrup, and soap. Members come to the farm on Fridays, from 3pm to 7pm, and take what they need for the week, in any quantity or combination they choose. Members are encouraged to take extra produce during the growing season for freezing or canning, to supplement what is available from the root cellar during winter and early spring. One farm – all your food. We also provide a farm to door option for New York City Households, we have a Farm Store on site, we provide training and research opportunities through the Essex Farm Institute, and we host various events throughout the year, from family meals to farm tours. In addition to food, we offer members the opportunity to hike the farm, visit fields and animals – including our draft horses, and join us as volunteers for harvest and fieldwork.

Essex Farm Store
The Essex Farm store is open from 8am until 6pm 7 days a week and is stocked to the brim with fresh seasonal vegetables, milk, eggs, chicken, grain and maple syrup. You can even buy an Essex Farm T-shirt, bag or a signed copy of Kristin Kimball’s book ‘The Dirty Life’ which chronicles Essex Farm’s startup year. Find out more here. Farm Events
Essex Farm is founded on a simple, radical desire: We wanted our members to know what it’s like to eat whole food, in accordance with the seasons, and in harmony with what each year gives us. Throughout the year we organize a number of farm workdays for members to come out and experience the land that feeds us. We also provide farm tours throughout the year, and will soon be introducing a delicious weekly experience: Food Fridays at the Farm. Essex Farm Institute
Generating the leaders of the new farm movement, Essex Farm Institute is an agricultural education and research institution that aims to train farmers to build resilient, diversified farms that are economically viable, socially responsible and environmentally beneficial. We strive to redefine farming as meeting fundamental human needs and we envision a future where farms power themselves, their communities and the world from the energy of the sun.
