Whats New?
4/8/08
The Ithaca Farmers Market has now started (every Saturday from 9-3) and we'll be there every week until it closes just before Christmas.  We have a good selection of pork, eggs, fresh herbs, garlic, some greens, homemade soap, and dried herbs.

We've started up the greenhouse and transferred in slow growing plants we've been growing since February.  Soon it will be full and overflowing.  The garlic and rhubarb are up, the layer chicks are growing, and the cows are counting the days until the calves are out.

Meat and eggs are still available at the farm year round. 
 We need your input on the use of casings in our sausages. Read more

Kingbird Farm produces a
diverse array of certified organically raised meats, produce, and value-added items. Our products include: certified organic pork, chicken, turkey, eggs, culinary herbs, and produce (includes onions, garlic, shallots, potatoes, and other vegetables). We also raise grassfed Highland X Angus beef.  Our field work is done with the use of our Belgian and Haflinger horses and our daughters Fjord horse Mira. 

We are certifed organic by NOFA-NY Certified Organic LLC (a USDA accredited certifier) for our produce, pastures, piglets, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and eggs.

Our products are currently available by preorder, at our self serve store on the farm and t
he Ithaca Farmers Market. We try to market everything we raise no farther than 30 miles from the farm.  Support your local farmer!   We are at the market every Saturday from April to December.  Meat and eggs are always available self serve on the farm. Our eggs are also available at GreenStar Cooperative Market in Ithaca, NY.
