Slow down and step back into simpler times at Handsome Brook Farm. When you come to visit, you can be part of our sustainable farm experience. Help in the Certified ORGANIC berry fields and vegetable gardens, feed and groom the animals, pick fruit and vegetables (in season) or learn how to make homemade pies, jams, or other items using our farm fresh, or other local ingredients (Betsy is an accomplished baker and our preserves and eggs are sold at nearly 100 locations across New York). Each of the rooms has a private bath and the farm house has geothermal heating and air-conditioning.
