Know Your CNY Farmer: Horsford Farms

Horsford Farms

Lucky for us, Bob and Sharon Horsford have been contributing to the local food supply for eight years now. Farming runs in her blood, and he has taken to it as a second career. In their hoop houses – the endless winter notwithstanding – long tidy lines of kale, onion, lettuce, peas, and a dense carpet of baby spinach run the lengths. The shelves in the greenhouse are stacked with trays of greens in miniature. It is clear great care and keeping has transpired over winter in preparation for the opening day of the Skaneateles Farmers Market.
