Description

In season, we have our vegetables ready for pick up on Tuesday (for some of our sites in and around Albany, and our Tuesday Delmar site) and on Friday afteroon (for the farm, the Friday Delmar site, Schenectady, and Altamont). We encourage our CSA members to visit the farm, to enjoy the the fields, views, trails & season, and maybe take part in our annual garlic harvest festival (or pick flowers in the U-pick garden - which included in the CSA share).

Fox Creek Farm is owned and operated by Sara and Raymond Luhrman. The farm, established in 2001, is located in Gallupville, which is in the most Eastern part of Schoharie County. In 2007, we moved our farm from the land we had been renting to owned and leased land. We farm on 67 acres of Lansing soils, that are part of a larger historic 100 acre deed. We are operating as a CSA since 2004.

It's our goal to operate an environmentally and economically sustainable farm, which provides our CSA members with the high quality produce, and provides the farmers and farm workers with a reasonable compensation for their work. We have adopted farming practices that maintain or increase soil health and productivity.

Located on the Albany and Schoharie County border, Fox Creek Farm CSA serves New York's Capital District and surroundings. During the growing season, the farm distributes premier quality, fresh and organically grown vegetables to it's members.

Fox Creek Farm is owned and operated by Sara and Raymond Luhrman. On this website you'll find more information about the CSA, our farm, and our farming practices.
