This small farm has a focus on sustainability. Baylee and Quinn, the two owners, are wonderful people with a deep commitment to their craft. They have a weekly CSA as well as hosting volunteers for farming education.

This is my first CSA share with Long Table Farm, and I’m thrilled to be a part of this lovely community. My family looks forward to seeing what produce will be in our share each week and it’s been fun to try new-to-us veggies (shishito peppers!) and cook new recipes based on what’s in our share. The variety is great and it’s really livened up our weekly menu. I also love being able to drop off my food scraps for the food composting program.

Cheers to Farmers Baylee and Quinn and team for all their hard work keeping us so well fed and for being such great stewards of the land.

We moved here 3 years ago this spring and joined this CSA immediately— Long Table Farm has been instrumental in our transition to the area by supplying (via farm stand and csa) about 80% of our food. We came from an area purported to have amazing produce and farms — and to our surprise and delight Long Table exponentially surpasses our previous farm produce experiences. Freshness starts here and the goodwill, help and humor from Farmers Baylee and Quinn enhance the overall. Oh and their duck eggs — yeah, life-changing.

I highly recommend Long Table Farm. They have live animals from baby piglets, bunnies, and turtles to amazing fresh, delicious food that is locally grown. Today, I picked up some fresh ginger as well as delicious sweet potatoes among other amazing lettuces. Each week different foods are provided based on what is blooming and ripe. In July, the strawberries are incredibly juicy. I highly recommend doing the CSA farm shares from long table farm and working with Bailey and her farmer team!

Amazing CSA. Been a member for 3 years now and the produce is alway fresh and so much tastier than the super market. This local farm does so much to bring us both the best food and to build community! Farmer Baylee and Farmer Quinn are so nice, friendly, and helpful and really make you feel welcome on this local farm. Definitely the best CSA and I look forward to many more years of delicious sustainable food!

This is an overdue review as someone who's been a CSA member (and obsessive fan) of Long Table Farm (formerly Upper Pond Farm) since the 2015 season. Five stars on Google is an understatement for the quality, service, and relationship Long Table provides. But that's the most I can give.

I think I speak for the community when I say we're all very grateful in the lower valley to have access to such amazing organically food grown and raised by the nicest, most caring, and incredibly talented farmers. Baylee, her husband Quinn, and their team are just really good people and amazing stewards of the environment through their methods. They take the time to get to know their customers personally, talk to them about their food and methods, and invite them to engage with the farm as much as possible. What an amazing and humbling feeling to be greeted by first name by the person who personally grew the food you eat. I also really appreciate how Long Table farm in a way that gives back to earth and preserves the wonderful soil we have in the valley.

The products of vegetables, fruits (get the torpedo melons next year), chickens, etc., themselves are absolutely phenomenal. You can taste the love and passion that goes into prepping, planting, growing, and harvesting everything. I can't stress enough that everything is organic, the highest quality, with such an amazing variety. I have three young children who LOVE these vegetables because they have taste! My youngest is known to eat their beets raw before I can even prepare a cooked meal with them! If you take anything from this review it's that Long Table's food is so good a five year old will request BEETS from them.

Again, the variety is fantastic. I've grown tremendously as a hobby cook by being introduced to wonderful things I had never been able to procure easily or at all in the past (sunchokes, rohlrabi, purple diakon, etc.). It's also an amazing feeling to prepare an entire meal with ingredients from one farm (roasted chicken and vegetables, chicken hash, and veggie bowls as a few examples). We even now make a pizza at home we call "The Long Table" which is caramelized onions, cherry or grape tomatoes, and blanched swiss chard all from Long Table. I also love okra hash with okra from the "pick your own" patch and potatoes from the farm.

To wrap this up PLEASE support local agriculture, eat incredibly well, meet cool people, and save the earth. To do that just call Baylee and become a CSA member or stop by the farm during a farm stand day (usually Saturdays 10-1).

One of my absolute favorite sustainable farms! I've been dedicated to shopping bio dynamic, organic and no-spray farmers markets for over a decade. This farm tops my list as a MUST. Go here for veggies, chicken and their newest item, pork! Run don't walk to get bacon, pork sirloin and sausage before they sell out. You can find their meat products every Saturday at their Beaver Brook Road location. *Note: You don't need a CSA share to shop at their farm, so, stop by and check them out.

Why so much love for this farm? Long Table Farm is committed to organic farming practices that entail them to be a no-spray farm. Their meat products are humanely pasture-raised, antibiotic and hormone-free. These farming practices are what makes their products superior. We've done all of their CSA shares and highly recommend them.

Shopping here is also very easy for any newbie since farm owners (Baylee and Quinn) are extremely friendly and super knowledgable on all of their products as are their staff! Bonus: you can usually buy eggs across the street. It really doesn't get any better than this.

Long Table Farm we thank you for the wholesome goodness!

Roasted a chicken tonight from Long Table, delicious as always.
Served sweet potatoes and broccolini from Long Table as well. Yummy.
Cooked down fresh cranberries purchased at the Long Table farm market yesterday, served with chicken, so delicious.
So fortunate they are 5 minutes away!
