Queens County Farm Museum
The Queens County Farm Museum is a New York City Landmark, on the National Register of Historic Places and a member of the Historic House Trust of New York City. Queens County Farm Museum dates back to 1697 and is one of the longest continuously farmed sites in New York State. The site includes historic farm buildings, a greenhouse complex, livestock, farm vehicles and implements, planting fields, an orchard, and an herb garden. Queens Farm connects visitors to agriculture and the environment through the lens of its 47-acre historic site, providing learning opportunities and creating conversations about biodiversity, nutrition, health and wellness, climate change and preserving local history. It is a vital and rare resource in an ever-changing, continually developing city, and beyond. The farm is owned by the New York City Department of Parks and is operated by the Colonial Farmhouse Restoration Society of Bellerose, Inc. Queens Farm’s programs are supported in part by public funds from the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the New York City Council. Additional support is provided by New York City Council Queens Delegation, Council Member Robert Holden, and Council Member Francisco Moya, NYC Department of Youth and Community Development, and New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. Queens County Farm Museum programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. Things to Do Agriculture The farm’s 47-acre historic site has produced food and fed New Yorkers for over three centuries. Queens Farm grows a variety of nutritionally dense and culturally relevant produce using sustainable and best farming practices. The farm’s Agriculture Department and its growing practices teach New Yorkers about where their food comes from and illustrates the broader food system, beginning with the seed and ending with the consumer. Education Programs Experience the legacy of three centuries of agriculture in New York City. On April 2, 1697, John Harrison sold his land to Elbert Adriance setting in motion over 300 years of continuous farming that is preserved and interpreted by the Queens County Farm Museum today.
