Kingston YMCA Farm Project

We are an urban, educational farm located in Midtown Kingston, just behind the YMCA of Kingston and Ulster County. We have 2 weekly farm stands at the YMCA.

We have one-third of an acre in production as well as a learning garden. We grow chemical free fruits and vegetables for the Midtown community. We are working to increase access to fresh, local foods by locating our farm stands in Midtown. We also engage children in farm based education through our work in schools, by bringing classes to the farm on field trips. We use the farm as a vehicle for yo

uth development, employing young people to work on the farm, run the farm stands, and to learn about the local foods system through food justice education and work.

Huge shout out to & for hosting us! We enjoyed a farm and garden tour and tasting with Farmers Julie & Nate the Great. Reunited with Leo, we learned to make and cook our own pizzas. Joe was the fab assist cooking & in the garden. Molly coordinated it all! The teens all mentioned how peaceful Nd quiet the farm was compared to our Midtown digs. We also all fell in love with the peach 🍑 tree that nourished us with the delightful taste of summer.
We had a wonderful day💗 Thank you 🙏

Un agradecimiento enorme a y por recibirnos! Disfrutamos de un recorrido por la granja y el huerto, además de una degustación, junto a los agricultores Julie y Nate "el Grande". Nos reencontramos con Leo y aprendimos a preparar y cocinar nuestras propias pizzas. Joe fue una ayuda fantástica tanto en la cocina como en el huerto, ¡y Molly coordinó todo! Todos los adolescentes comentaron lo tranquila y serena que era la granja en comparación con nuestro entorno en Midtown. También nos enamoramos del melocotonero 🍑 que nos regaló el delicioso sabor del verano.
Pasamos un día maravilloso 💗 ¡Gracias! 🙏

Rose is our photographer & social media content writer today, here’s what she has to share:
Our crew had so much fun visiting The Metro building, an upcoming fabrication lab located in Midtown Kingston! Two of our youth crew members have been interning at The Metro for the last five weeks. They got to show us their tile making project!
They’ve been taking waste material produced by a water jet cutter and turning it into tiles. Then, with a CO2 laser, they engrave designs onto the tiles. All the designs come from different members of the Kingston community. The finished tiles are then incorporated into The Metro building.
We’re so proud of our youth crew co-workers for the work they’ve done and loved getting to see the creativity of the people in our community.

Shout out to our 2 interns from the Culinary Institute of America, Sydney & Karim!
They were with us May-July as part of sustainable food systems course. They learned about all aspects of the farm during their time such as greenhouse work, seedling sale, transplanting on the farm, seeding the farm, volunteer days, stewarding the pollinator gardens, harvesting, farm stands, field trips composting & cooking for mutual aid.
Sydney’s first day included building and planting our tree nurseries. On Karim’s last day he made us lunch- an Egyptian meal of Molokhia over rice, roasted chicken, citrusy dressed salad and hibiscus tea.
Our youth crew was able to work alongside college students and learn about culinary careers.

¡Un saludo especial a nuestras dos pasantes del Culinary Institute of America, Sydney y Karim!
Estuvieron con nosotros de mayo a julio como parte de un curso sobre sistemas alimentarios sostenibles. Durante su estancia, aprendieron sobre todos los aspectos de la granja, incluyendo el trabajo en el invernadero, la venta de plántulas, el trasplante y la siembra en el campo, las jornadas de voluntariado, el cuidado de los jardines para polinizadores, la cosecha, los puestos de venta, las visitas educativas, el compostaje y la preparación de comida para iniciativas de ayuda mutua.
El primer día de Sydney incluyó la construcción y plantación de nuestros viveros de árboles. En su último día, Karim nos preparó el almuerzo: un plato egipcio de *molokhia* con arroz, pollo asado, ensalada con aderezo cítrico e infusión de hibisco.
Nuestro equipo de jóvenes tuvo la oportunidad de trabajar junto a estudiantes universitarios y aprender sobre las carreras en el ámbito culinario.
