Special statement:
Due to the COVID-19 virus, even in the yellow phase we will continue to limit our contact with customers for your and our sake. With our new system, all you need to do is order and pay online and come at your designated pick up time to get your order. Leave some time to enjoy the fine weather and sun, go for a walk, pet Tommy, enjoy a new conversation (with proper social distancing methods)- it is good for the soul to be outside and enjoy some UV light! We will still be utilizing our high standards of cleanliness and sanitizing schedules in our packing sheds- sanitizing countertops, door knobs and washing of hands before handling items, and use of gloves. Please, if you are not feeling well, stay home. Send a friend to pick up for you. We will be adhering to all safety measures as recommended by the USDA and the PA Department of Agriculture. Both departments have stated that all PA farm markets and stands provide a vital service to their communities, and so, should remain open through this public health crisis. That's the information we have at the moment, so that's what we'll do! We intend to do our best and keep the experience of eating local from the Josie Porter Farm, SAFE. Thank you for your continued support!

The care of the Earth is our most ancient and most worthy, and after all our most pleasing responsibility. To cherish what remains of it and to foster its renewal is our only hope.
In the past few years we diversified our farm operation to include a "Buying Club" with our on-site farm market. The Josie Porter Farm is actively working with a number of other small family farms, who share our values, within our regional "foodshed" to insure the highest quality and widest variety of certified organic grown fruits and vegetables, meats, dairy and eggs at our on-site farm market and produce within the weekly CSA share. Variety and choice has been expanded through this collaboration and augments our notion of providing a local food hub for one-stop healthy, sustainable food shopping. We offer locally and regionally sourced: honey, maple syrup, meat, eggs, cheese, breads, wild caught Alaskan salmon and more! Click here for information about the Buying Club. Buying Club membership allows you to order before the general public for specialized items like whole, roaster chickens, meats, dairy, and bulk items.
The foremost program of the Josie Porter Farm is the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) operation which provides a weekly share of produce, on-farm and now through workplace wellness programs and community drop-off sites, to over 150 families in the local community. Click herefor more information about the CSA.
The Buying Club and CSA operation are programs of the Josie Porter Farm.
We are located eight minutes south of Stroudsburg in Northeastern Pennsylvania, and offer families an opportunity to partake in fresh, locally grown and organically managed produce. Families who participate in the farm support the cost of raising these delicious vegetables, and help maintain the environmental and scenic quality of the beautiful Cherry Valley area of the Pocono Mountains. The local community of shareholders and members becomes connected with and mindful of the real needs of our Earth, the Valley, and "their" farm.
