Norwich Meadows Farm
Norwich Farm started in 1998 on a half-acre parcel behind the founders’ house. During the first two years of operation, business was only done in upstate New York. In 2000, the current partners in Norwich Meadows Farm, LLC, decided to expand the farm with the vision of creating a community supported by the farm and other small businesses.
Today, that vision is becoming a reality. The farm acreage has expanded significantly to an area of over 80 acres and 20 acres in pasture that includes a rented farm in New Jersey. They have a presence in a number of markets including green markets in New York City and a growing list of community supported groups (CSAs) in New York City and Norwich.
Norwich Meadows Farms has instituted a program of growing crops in “High Tunnels” in order to gain more control over adverse weather conditions and to increase yields. To date they have constructed more than 50 tunnels and have formed a construction and sales division to design and install tunnels on other farms.
