about the farm

Sunray Community Farm is an in-development educational regenerative farm, nursery, and community space located at 411 Wemple Road in Glenmont, New York. We are currently focused on establishing the infrastructure, gardens, orchards, and systems needed to support the farm's long-term growth.

Our mission is to produce food, nursery plants, and educational opportunities while helping people build a stronger connection to the land. Through farming, workshops, and community events, we hope to share practical skills related to gardening, agriculture, ecology, and community self-reliance.

We use no synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, or fungicides. Instead, we focus on building healthy soils, supporting biodiversity, and creating resilient growing systems that improve over time.

Our nursery emphasizes perennial fruit and nut plants, along with select native plants, annuals, vegetables, and herbaceous perennials. We work to reduce waste by growing most of our plants in Fertilpots which are 100% biodegradable and made of wood fiber, and they can be directly planted into the ground which reduces transplant shock. We also offer a pot return credit program for reusable nursery containers.

As the farm develops, we hope to become a welcoming place where people can learn, participate, explore new ideas, and gain the confidence to grow some of their own food and plants. Whether someone is planting their first garden, adding a fruit tree to their landscape, or exploring regenerative agriculture, we hope Sunray Community Farm can serve as a resource and gathering place for the community.
