Farm Update 11/15/2015

Special Thanks to All Who Support and Enjoy Our Community Farm

The success of Crossroads Farm is not an accident. Its due to the unceasing support from all the volunteers, educators, sponsors, staff, visiting school children, and all in the community who are involved at the farm throughout the year. But special thanks go to the volunteers, the dozens of committed people who come together to make something happen bigger than themselves individually.

You made the many events we’ve held so far a great success. You weeded and planted. You shopped in the store, listened to music, saw some great theater, sipped some beer or wine, met the animals, enjoyed a hay ride. Your children enjoyed the swing sets and had their eyes opened to magic of food production.

As a reminder, the farm is operated by the Nassau Land Trust, a 501(c)(3) non profit. When you support the farm in any way, you are not only having fun and enjoying one of the most precious assets in our community, but you are also supporting the farm financially. We also depend on monetary donations since we do not receive any public funding support.
