Located in the fertile Musconetcong Valley (more info) of Warren County in western New Jersey, Asbury Village Farm has 12 organic acres under cultivation (directions and contacts). We are members of the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA) and certified by the NJDA. For 17 years we have employed sustainable practices to build the soil, provide good stewardship for the land and supply local residents with organic produce.
With 3500 square feet under our high tunnels we start harvesting greens in April and continue our extended season through winter.
Read about shares in the CSA, (Community Supported Agriculture), which provides a week’s supply of seasonal produce from May through November. Visit our retail page for sales to the general public.
