Stone Barns Center for Food & Agriculture
914-366-6200
Stone Barns is an idyllic activity park for nature lovers and foodies alike. With its mission of connecting "farm to table," this nonprofit farm and education center offers a wide range of classes and tours for all ages. The food and livestock grown here year-round is available to eat in the Blue Hill Restaurant and the Blue Hill Cafe and is also available at the Farm Market. What isn't consumed on site is sourced out to area restaurants and food stores. Over 100 volunteers tend the vegetables and the free-range animals over the many rolling acres, which is also just a nice place to wander freely.

This farm is amazing! We went there some months back late in the summer and took a tour of the grounds. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about what they grow and the uses of most of the plants. Also its pretty incredible that the farm is part of the old Rockefeller estate and was originally a dairy farm. If you've never been there this place is worth taking the tour. I've hear the restaurant is incredible but have not made the trip back there yet.
