Once home to Ann Piombino’s Three Swallows Farm, one of our founding farms, the Youth Farm Project now manages this historical farm adjacent to the Ithaca Waldorf School.
The Youth Farm Project empowers youth from diverse social and economic backgrounds as integral participants in building equitable local food communities.
The Youth Farm doesn't sell produce into the weekly shares, that way they can focus on what they do best: educate and grow a vibrant community of future farmers and foodies. But! The connection remains!
The summer youth crew maintains one of our wonderful u-pick gardens and YFP hosts our Saturday pack-your-own farm pick-up, feeding 120+ households.

Part of our mission is to be sure fresh, healthy food is accessible regardless of income. Beyond providing subsidized CSA shares, we donate regularly to pantries including:
Friendship Donations Network, Immaculate Conception Food Pantry, Danby Food Pantry & more
