Our Story

Overlooking Cayuga Lake within New York's Finger Lakes region, Autumn’s Harvest Farm, LLC thrives. It all began in the early 2000s, ignited by a serendipitous encounter with six baby chicks that found their way into our care. Inspired by the dream of nurturing a family on a farm, instilling regenerative practices, and cultivating a deep love for animals and the land in our, someday, children, our journey began.With the arrival of Labor Day, not merely the close of summer but the inception of a bustling chicken tractor and the addition of 50 feathered companions, our immersion into gardening, pig rearing, and farming began. Unbeknownst to us, these endeavors sowed the seeds of Autumn’s Harvest Farm, LLC.Through unyielding dedication and ceaseless effort, our vision of crafting a self-sustaining regenerative farmstead gradually materialized. As the years unfolded, our family expanded, with three children wholeheartedly embracing farm life and the foundational principles of regenerative farming that form the core of Autumn’s Harvest.At the heart of our farm lie transparency and integrity. Livestock freely graze, feasting on natural forage without the intrusion of antibiotics, hormones, or artificial additives. Our commitment to ethical practices extends from the contented grazing animals to the conscientious nurturing of the soil.The inevitable evolution of the farm transpired. Initially, our meats graced local farmers' markets and our onsite farm store. However, embracing the winds of change in 2020, we ventured into innovation by adopting an online platform for pre-orders and local pickups, fostering connections with grateful patrons across the Finger Lakes region.As the world evolves around us, Autumn’s Harvest Farm evolves in parallel. With meticulous planning and unwavering dedication, the farm strides into its next chapter. Our meticulously prepared meats, free from GMOs and expertly hand-cut, are primed to reach doorsteps across New York State, in 2026, delivering the essence of farm goodness.
