Assortment of seasonal vegetables, onion, garlic, etc. Humble Hill Farm was founded in 1999 in the Finger Lakes region of upstate NY. The farm began with 21 acres and only about 2 acres of good tillable farmland. With careful land management, our master gardener Rick Tarantelli produced an abundance of crops year after year from only a 1/2 acre of intensely farmed land. Humble Hill has been selling at the Ithaca Farmers Market for seven years. In 2008 Humble Hill farm annexed 150 acres of land from the farm that shares our northern border, thus beginning a new chapter in the growth and development of the farm. In 2009 we began selling shares to our CSA. (Community Supported Agriculture.)
