The B3 (Bovine Burp Buster) Project begins this summer at Wolfe’s Neck Center to study the effect of adding seaweed to the diet of dairy cows on reducing methane emissions. Learn more about the project from our new Agricultural Research Coordinator.

Dairy & Livestock Manager Brian takes a walk out to pasture with us to explain what we look for before letting the cows out to pasture for the season.

Joe Grady of WNC and Two Coves Farm gives us a closer look at the traits of a modern day small farmer, and how building connections can push the knowledge and appreciation for the value of small, local farms to new levels.

Make your way through this digital rendition of a workshop we would typically be hosting at the farm! Herbalist and educator Allie Armstrong guides us through a step-by-step tutorial for making your own pine syrup with ingredients you likely already have on hand.

Eat well with a salad grown on your very own window sill! Farm Tom walks us through the simple process of growing spicy mustard greens, a "cut-and-come-again" crop that will leave you and your family entertained and happily munching in just a couple weeks' time.

A renovation project has brought back the poise of a longstanding home on Wolfe's Neck, one that has been here since the mid-nineteenth century, and even exposed some clues of its past along the way. When discarding old siding along an upper window, the construction crew came across a rare find: the initials "W.L." dated June 23, 1845, providing new clues around the mystery of the original homebuilder.

We are continually looking for ways to improve the health and quality of life for our animals here on our farm. One of the areas we have recently addressed is how to best raise our calves. Our dairy manager Brian tells us about the recent upgrades we've made to our calf housing.

We’re having an atypically long February with it being a leap year, and for us that means more time to spend winter at Wolfe’s Neck Center! It’s the perfect time to get outside, get active, and make the most of the peace and quiet of the season. Gear up for your farm visit with layers to keep you warm and an idea of what to expect when you arrive.

What does a CSA include? Aside from a weekly share of produce from June to October, here are seven other perks that come with it.

It's a new year! While other people are meditatively reflecting about where the time has gone, we're wonderstruck by the numerical symmetry of "2020". To honor this marvel, we've asked 20 questions to one of our farmers. Meet Tom, our Fruit & Vegetable Production Manager and Educator.
