Company description

Long Season Farm is a certified organic vegetable farm focusing on four season production of high quality vegetables for farmers markets and wholesale in Ulster County NY.

We utilize the main growing season to have a bounty of warm loving crops from late spring through fall. In the “off season” our high tunnels are home to cold hardy greens, while our cooler stores roots crops and cabbages.

We embrace the seasons rather than struggle against them and so through the seasons we only select varieties that are at their absolute best for the period we grow them.
