Dutch Barn Farm

Dutch Barn Farm is a historic family farm in Stone Arabia, NY where we raise fresh, grass-fed lamb, chicken,vegetables, honey and hops
Dutch Barn Farm is more than an agricultural enterprise. We work this specific farm to support the historic elements of this community. Our farming enterprises are designed to support that goal as well as providing meat in a manner that is sustainable and reasoned. 
The farm consists of 95 acres located in East Stone Arabia which was first reached by Dutch and German settlers at the end of the 17th Century.  The farm was part of the Stone Arabia Patent that deeded the Mohawk River valley land to settlers in 1734.  Before then it was settled by Iroquois.
