Description
We are a 200 year old rustic farm on 76 acres of beautiful fields and woods. We grow hydroponic vegetables in greenhouses and outdoors. We always have new projects underway. We lease some land to commercial growers but are not looking for help for them. We grow to be self-sustaining and build to accommodate visitors.
