From Denison Farm: "We are family farmers, Brian and Justine Denison, our children Suzanna and Maggie. We have been in NY State for nine years, having moved here from Maine, where for 16 years, we grew over 100 acres of mixed vegetables. Brian is also a forester out of the University of Maine and Justine has taught elementary school, works on the farm, and is a musician.

"Denison Farm is fully committed to organic agriculture. We follow the national organic standards and are certified by “Certified Naturally Grown”. Our Schaghticoke, NY farm is 164 acres of rich bottomland, wooded ridges, pasture/hayfields, marsh, and streams. The farm has a 21-year history of organic management and CSA marketing started by our much-loved predecessor, Janet Britt."

Why CSA?
"The problems with our industrialized food system are many. From pesticide residues in our food, soil, and water, to the shrinking number of family farms, there are many reasons to look at alternative food systems such as CSA. The CSA concept first took hold in Japan, where it was called “food with the farmer’s face”, emphasizing that food does not have to be a generic commodity transported many miles and produced under factory-like conditions. From my perspective as the farmer, CSA succeeds because it allows me to focus on my passion for working with the land to produce the most wholesome, life-giving, best tasting food possible, while building a strong bond with the members I am feeding."
