Any supplemental produce will be Certified Organic and grown using similar growing practices to those we use on our own farm. These crops will most likely include sweet potatoes and winter squash. Our farmers have decided to supplement a few of the crops they grow with those from other local, organic family farms to round out the variety and provide more of what our members are asking for. As many of you know, the ultimate harvests are most often out of their control. Together with a skilled and dedicated farm team, they grow over one hundred varieties of vegetables for over 2,000 CSA member families of Long Island and Queens.Our Farmers’ Year End Surveys have provided them with valuable information regarding member preferences and requests for certain crops and varieties. Matthew and Maggie live on the farm with their two sons, Galen and Zinn.

Matthew’s wife, architect/designer Maggie Wood, joined him in 2002.

The farm was started in 1996 by Matthew Kurek, a chef turned farmer with a passion for vegetables and for sustainable agriculture.

Our vegetables are grown on Golden Earthworm Organic Farm, which is located in Jamesport, on the North Fork of Long Island.
