Keeping Northeast Family Farms in NY Metro area Consciousness!
"There is so much lying going on out there and so little integrity and stretching of the truth - an honest label seems appropriate for our times."
What our label represents -
As Advisors for Northeast Family Farms we advocate on their behalf - propelling consumers in the Metropolitan areas to connect with farmers in a wholesome way.

Consumers that buy directly from family farmers help them stay in business. Family farmers preserve open space in rural areas, and provide nutritious food.
We provide farmers and consumers information and educational assistance in the creation and packaging of food products. We schedule Educational workshops on American homesteading, artisan, and farming traditions for generations.
We preserve cultural and horticultural traditions linked to a specific region, ethnicity or traditional production practice. Heirloom seeds are saved and exchanged. Our products are produced in small batch processing centers.
We are Caregivers of Animals promoting Heritage Breeds
We are Protectors of Natural Ecosystems and Wildlife
We invite Agritourism through "Family Farm Week", farm picnics and festivals, and Featherdown Farm Days!
We go beyond the "organic" label supporting small instead of commercial and industrial feedlots.
