Each and every one has brought something unique to our work and lives during these early [...]

For the latest little feature on people at or connected with our farm we sat down with Andrew ('Chip') Chiappinelli who is chef-owner at Grazin' Diner in Hudson, NY. Most weeks of the year we supply Animal Welfare Approved eggs produced by our organically-fed hens here at Little Ghent Farm. There's a strong chance, if you have dined at Grazin' recently, that you've enjoyed some of our eggs. Gra[...]

"Who was your architect?", "who was your builder?" Aside from "is there any bread today?" these are two of the most frequently asked questions here at Little Ghent Farm. Some visitors have barely left their cars and these words, or a variation of them, are spilling out. In this post we have asked Neil, Adam and Bill to share with us some of their thoughts. By way of background, the farm has b[...]

Sue Decker is the farmer at Blue Star Farm in Stuyvesant and Kinderhook, NY. We started buying vegetables from Sue before we had our farm, while we were weekenders when we shopped at Hudson farmers' market. We now buy many of our vegetables from Sue throughout the year for the farm kitchen. The vegetables Sue and her team grow are really delicious and we're constantly amazed and grateful about how[...]

Ironwood Farm, just a few miles from us, is one of the two farms we buy most of our produce from for our farm kitchen here at Little Ghent Farm. We really appreciate that they are a new business like us and being able to support their efforts by buying their product is important to us. Mostly though we buy their product because it is wonderful and delicious. As a family we subscribe to Ironwood's [...]

Some of Hudson’s youth are on the 'front line' facing headwinds at school, at home and in the comm[...]
