Shoestring Farm is a small organic farm growing vegetables and small fruits on approximately 3 cultivated acres.
We also produce maple syrup and honey, as well as organic plants for sale in spring--perennial and annual flowers, vegetable starts, and herbs. Our 22 acre farm is located on Christian Hill in Colrain, Massachusetts in the Deerfield River Watershed.
Rich Pascale has farmed organically full-time since 1972. Rich is one of the co-founders and growers for Common Wealth Cooperative CSA and has been a vendor at the Greenfield Farmer’s Market since it began in 1975.
Jay Snyder began working at Shoestring Farm in 2001 and has been co-working the farm with Rich since 2004. Jay co-founded the Marlboro College Farm Project and has traveled to the U.K. to volunteer on small organic farms as part of WWOOF, Willing Workers Opportunities on Organic Farms.
