GEM Farms

Directions

No Farms. No Food. It was not until 1973, when the first buffalo cow, calf, and bull were purchased to begin the fun of having a herd of buffalo.

The Mesick's family farm began in 1793, where an immigrant from Southern Germany, Fritz Mesick, purchased approximately 100 acres in South Schodack where they established a dairy farm. This original piece of land is still in the Mesick family today, along with new additions of land making it approximately a total of 600 acres. We now have approximately 85 buffalo, give or take a few horns. Along with our buffalo, we also have beefer cows that we acquired in 2005. Both of these herds are grass fed and are not given grain or antibiotics. You can find frozen cuts of both kinds of meat in our farm store along with many other gift items. Our store is open all throughout the year on Saturday's and Sunday's from 12:00 - 4:00 or throughout the week by appointment. Not only do we have our farm store, we also have our farm stand during the summer and fall! At our farm stand you can find all sorts of vegetables including our famous sweet corn! Vegetables include zucchini, yellow squash, cucumbers, cabbage, peppers, tomatoes, and egg plant. In the fall we sell jack-o-lantern pumpkins, pie pumpkins, white pumpkins, gourds, acorn squash, delicata squash, spaghetti squash, butternut squash, straw bails, and corn stalks. There is something for everyone! Stop on by and don't hesitate to say hello! Enjoy the view and take pictures.

We are running full speed again despite getting a ‘little’ soggy from that historical rain fall. A few days of hand picking and getting stuck a few times, we were able to continue on strong with the corn season. The corn inspectors did a few taste tests/inspections and believe it is still the best yet.
Our thoughts are with our community as they continue to clean up and dry out from all the flooding. Shout out to all the local fire departments and emergency crews working day and night to assist with the clean up, we thank you!

’Knee high the 4th of July’

We can safely say it’s well past the knees of our corn inspector! Little rain, sunshine and some heat will bring on the corn.

For those of you wondering when our famous Mesick sweet corn will be ready, “Soon….I think” according to our 11th generation farmer!
