Hawthorne Valley Farm, a Demeter-certified biodynamic CSA farm, is located at 327 County Road 21C, Ghent, NY 12075, Columbia County in the upper-Hudson Valley.

From Hawthorne Valley Farm: "Since 1972, we have been producing high quality, Biodynamic and organic foods while providing farm-based learning experiences for children and adults. Our 400-acre Biodynamic farm includes dairy cows, vegetables, a creamery, organic bakery, sauerkraut cellar, and more. Our Farm Store is a full-line natural foods store open 7 days a week.

"Our work revolves around cultivating relationships: with the earth, our surrounding communities and landscape, and with one another. The times are calling for a new form of agriculture – Agriculture 3.0 – that requires a radically enlarged context of sound farming principles, new economic forms and parameters, and renewed recognition of the role of agriculture and agriculturists in our culture and society."

CSA Shares
Hawthorne Valley Farm has a 300–member Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program and supplies organic and Biodynamic produce to Columbia County residents and to three New York City communities (Garden City, Inwood, and Riverdale). Over 40 varieties of vegetables are grown on 10 acres, and fruit shares from local farmers are also available.

Hawthorne Valley Farm Store
"With an updated, green building completed in 2004, the Farm Store is a far cry from the self-serve old horse barn that once housed our retail operation. The Farm Store has grown to a full-line organic/natural foods and grocery store that will meet many of your household shopping needs.

"We strive to offer as many locally grown or produced fruits, vegetables, grocery products, and household items as possible and are committed to supporting our local farmers and artisans. Stop by for hot food, cold sandwiches, or soups and salads from our Organic Deli; enjoy a cup of locally-roasted coffee with a pastry from our Organic Bakery; or, shop for your grocery and household needs."

    Artisan Foods
    "All foods made on the farm are certified-organic and some are certified-Biodynamic. As much as possible, ingredients that we can’t grow on our farm come from other farms in the region."

    Bakery
    Housed in the Farm Store building, our certified organic Bakery is well–known for its organic breads and bakery products. The flours, grains, nuts, seeds, and fruits used in the bakery goods are all biodynamic or organically grown, and the wheat is milled daily to ensure freshness.

    "Our bakery products, all thoughtfully and carefully made by our bakers, include a variety of sourdough and yeasted breads, rolls (both sourdough and yeasted), granolas, scones, muffins, several types of cookies, and a host of other treats. These freshly-made and satisfying goods are sold at the Farm Store, are available from our market stands at the Union Square and Inwood Greenmarkets in New York City, and can be ordered by our CSA members. A select list of items are also available via Wholesale."

    Bakery (certified organic)
    Dairy (yogurt, quark, fresh and aged cheeses, raw milk)
