A note to our community<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are all in this together!<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

We are continuing to monitor the Covid-19 situation and are following guidance from public health officials and governmental agencies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Out of concern for the health and safety of everyone, we are cancelling or postponing all of our public programs and are unable to host visitors to the farm at this time. As it is part of our mission to encourage use of open space and to cultivate a connection with nature, we would like to direct you to our sister organization, the Peconic Land Trust, that oversees many beautiful natural open paces within driving distance from the farm to visit. Click here for more information<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have paused our general volunteer program. The Nassau Land Trust will continue to monitor the situation and keep you informed of possible pop-up farm stands and plant sales. Our limited staff is working diligently to provide the essential service of growing food for our community. Good food is coming soon. We are working on growing starts for your own home food and flower beds.<\/span><\/p>\n

We ask that you please join us in our effort to get our crops planted by making a contribution<\/a> towards our operating costs. Without revenue from events, our market, and education program, it will become increasingly difficult to pay our staff, and therefore to grow our produce over the coming months. Consider making a donation online<\/a> to help us continue to provide our community with fresh, locally grown food.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
