Company description

Located in Lake Hopatcong, New Jersey, Hawk Ridge Farm is a 10-acre sustainable farm dedicated to providing the local community with healthy, organic food and unique educational experiences. Founded in 2020, the farm has grown from a goat sanctuary into a fully operational agricultural hub that practices regenerative-organic farming.

The farm produces a diverse range of organic fruits and vegetables, free-range eggs, and raw honey, which are distributed through an on-site farm stand and a robust Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. Beyond production, Hawk Ridge Farm is deeply community-oriented, serving as an animal rescue center—home to alpacas, mini horses, sheep, and pigs—and a center for learning, offering workshops on topics like home gardening, beekeeping, and sustainable living. As a member of the "Live the Lake NJ" family of businesses, the farm is a key destination for farm-to-table meals and family-friendly seasonal events.
