My patients know that I’m here for them, and that I have support from specialists if need be. – Mark Hankins, NP Rooted in excellence, supported by a strong network, and reaching new heights each day. CPHprimarycare.org 2014 Local Food Guide Farm Listings 4 Farmers’ Markets 16 Retail, Restaurants & Other Local Food Outlets 18 Food Assistance 20 Locator Map 22 Product Index 24 D iscover the bounty of St. Lawrence County! The 2014 Local Food Guide is your key to finding the freshest, healthiest, and tastiest food direct from our local farmers. Farms, farmstands, farmers’ markets, u-picks, and CSAs are all listed. The handy product index toward the back can help you find specific items, and the locator map shows how close you are to the farm fresh food you are searching for. Food assistance resources are listed as well. Everyone has their own reasons for seeking out local food. For some, it’s about protecting the environment by keeping the miles food travels from farm to fork low, or by buying from farmers whose growing practices are environmentally friendly; for others, eating locally means eating seasonally, which gives them a feeling of connection to the natural world; for some people it’s about taste, as every day food spends on a truck or a boat it loses flavor (and nutrients), so food that is fresher simply tastes better. For an increasing number of people, however, the issue is our local economy. On average, only 11 cents of every dollar goes to the farmer when you buy your food in a grocery store. But when you spend your food dollars with our local producers they get that whole dollar. And for every dollar spent with a locally-owned business, 45 cents is reinvested in our community, as opposed to 15 cents when you spend that dollar at a corporate-owned chain. So as you use this Guide to source great food for yourself and your family, you are also contributing to the economic strength of our whole community. Thank you! 100% organic seeds from an independently-owned, farm-based seed company with a commitment to quality, customer service and healthy communities.

Tulley, Jr., Agent (315) 578-2380 227 S. Woods Rd., Hammond, NY 13646 BC (0314) The Local Food Guide is published annually by GardenShare, a nonprofit organization working to build an equitable and robust local food system in St. Lawrence County, New York. For more information about our programs and work, please visit us online at gardenshare.org. GardenShare.org 3 FARMS ABOUT THIS GUIDE The farms listed in this guide have assured us that they sell food they have raised themselves or food they have produced themselves using largely local ingredients. Beyond this simple honor system, GardenShare does not certify locally grown food or farming practices. In addition to their own food, these farms may also sell food that is grown by their neighbors, or even food that is not locally grown or produced. Feel free to ask the farmer, Did you grow this yourself? TERMS Certified Organic: Certified organic farms have met USDA standards for organic food production, as verified by an accredited agency such as the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York (NOFA-NY). Other farms may also follow organic practices but have chosen not to undergo the certification process. NOFA-NY Farmer’s Pledge: Signers commit themselves to ecologically sound farming and to socially responsible labor and local marketing practices. Ask the farmer about his or her farming practices. CSA: Some farms offer a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) option. Consumers can purchase a share of the farm’s harvest at the beginning of the growing season and then receive a box of the fresh harvest each week through the season. Accepts CSA Bonus Bucks: Many area CSAs participate in a GardenShare program that makes CSA affordable for incomeeligible families. For more information about Bonus Bucks, see gardenshare.org or call 315-261-8054. FARMS in alphabetical order.

St. Lawrence County is a high needs area where one in four of our children rely on some sort of food assistance throughout the year. If you or your family are having trouble putting food on the table, you are not alone, and the resources to help range from the usual Department of Social Services to community efforts including weekly open meals and backpack/weekend programs at schools. GardenShare’s website (GardenShare.org) lists most of these programs in the area. If you are having a food emergency, please call Reach Out at 315-265-2422. The following programs help make farmers’ markets and good food accessible to all of us. CSA Bonus Bucks GardenShare’s “CSA Bonus Bucks” program spreads the benefits of Community Supported Agriculture to people living on a tight budget. The program pays $100 of the cost of a CSA membership for limited-income households. For more information see our website at GardenShare.org, or call us at 315-261-8054. Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program FMNP offers limited-income seniors and WIC participants checks that are redeemable for fresh fruits and vegetables at participating farmers’ markets. Besides improving nutrition for these participants, the program is an important source of sales for local farmers. In St. Lawrence County, checks for seniors are distributed by the Office for the Aging (315-386-4730). Checks for women, infants, and children are distributed at WIC clinics by the North Country Children’s Clinic (315-386-8128). WIC Vegetables & Fruits Checks Moms can now use their WIC Vegetable and Fruits checks to buy eligible fresh produce at farmers’ markets from authorized vendors. Food Stamps/EBT/SNAP Program Currently more than one in seven Americans receives food stamp benefits in the U.S. Most of the Farmers' Markets in the county accept SNAP/EBT as a form of payment as well as debit cards. Every $1.00 spent in food stamps generates $1.84 in economic revenue for our local economy. For a friendly and confidential conversation about your eligibility, call 1-800-782-0814. You can also apply online at mybenefits.ny.gov. Food Pantries Each year the food pantries in St. Lawrence County distribute nearly 800,000 meals to seniors, adults, and children who need food assistance. To find a food pantry near you, visit GardenShare.org. The Food Bank of Central New York also has great resources throughout the region: foodbankcny.org/get-help. WHAT IS A COMMUNITY-BASED FOOD SYSTEM? G ardenShare believes that the pleasure of eating delicious, wholesome food belongs to everyone... but not everyone has a place at the table. Since 2003, GardenShare has been creating innovative programs that address food, farming, and fairness, right here in the North Country. Our progams connect local people with local food in an effort to ensure healthy food choices for everyone, while at the same time, improving our local, rural, agricultural economy. The idea is to build a community-based food system. Production, processing and consumption tied to a geographic region “Local food” means different things to different people in different contexts, but awareness of where food is raised helps support the local community whenever possible. Ensuring that the local region has all the major components of a food system is an important element to regional food security. Policies that promote regional food production, processing and consumption From federal policy that determines agriculture subsidies and food assistance benefits, to local policies about zoning, procurement, and health, policy plays a huge role in the food on our tables. A local food policy council can help bring stakeholders together so that local food system issues are addressed in ways that meed the needs of the whole community. Widespread access to adequate, affordable & nutritious foods It's no use having plenty of food if people don't have access to it. When we talk about ‘access,’ we mean availability–is healthy food available in a community; affordability–is healthy food an affordable option in the community; and knowledge–do the people in the community know how to prepare food, and do they have the tools they need to do so. Stable base of locally owned farms that use sustainable farming practices For our rural, agricultural economy to be healthy, farm diversity is crucial; farms of different sizes producing different crops. When those farms are owned by people who live in our communities, as opposed to absent landowners, their profits circulate in our economy, and those farmowners are better stewards of the land. Food and agriculture related businesses that create jobs Everybody eats food almost every day. As our agricultural economy strengthens, so will all kinds of agriculture-related business, creating a cycle that feeds on itself. Food and agriculture related businesses are great ways to build economy in our rural area.
