What Stones Throw Farm does

Stones Throw Farm is a privately held, family-owned organic farm operating in South Onondaga (Nedrow), New York, since 2005. The farm produces sustainably grown specialty vegetables, herbs, flowers, tree fruit, bramble, artisanal honey, and eggs from laying hens fed local organic grain, using regenerative and ecological practices focused on soil health, mechanical weed control (tine weeders, basket weeders, hand weeding, mulching), biological and natural pest management, and high-tunnel production for season extension. It has been a NOFA-NY member since the late 1990s and has never used synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides.

The farm's commercial model is a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) subscription program running nearly year-round across three tiers: an 18-week Regular Season share at $805 (June–October), a six-week bi-weekly Late Season share at $265 (October–November), and a four-month Winter CSA share at $365 (December–March). Distribution is exclusively direct-to-consumer via market-style on-farm pickup on scheduled Tuesday evenings and Saturday mornings, with U-pick flowers, herbs, and heirloom tomatoes included. The farm also sells to a small set of select wholesale accounts and serves as a pickup-time distribution point for partner farm products including dairy (Lively Run Dairy), meats (Cobblestone Valley Farm), eggs, maple syrup, and fruit.

Customer acquisition is community-led: a farm website, blog, Instagram (@stones_throw_farm), Facebook, an email newsletter, and referrals through the existing CSA member base and NOFA-NY network. The 2026 season is the farm's 22nd farming season and 20th CSA season, making it one of the longest continually running CSAs in Central New York. Customer segments are local CNY households and families within driving distance of Syracuse, plus a limited set of regional wholesale buyers; the farm reports no disclosed revenue and is bootstrapped with no institutional investors.

Stones Throw Farm competitors and assessment

Company assessment

Broad incumbents

Imperfect Foods: National subscription produce delivery service sourcing organic and 'imperfect' produce direct from growers. Represents the broader, digital-first competitive set that Stones Throw's no-delivery, on-farm-only CSA model does not currently address.
Misfits Market: Online subscription grocer delivering organic produce and groceries nationally. Relevant peer for benchmarking the consumer-facing subscription produce model that competes for the same local-organic dollar in the same households Stones Throw serves.

Direct peers

Eatwell Farm: Certified organic farm in the Sacramento Valley operating a multi-season CSA with on-farm pickup and add-on products such as eggs and honey. Directly comparable to Stones Throw on subscription recurring revenue, organic-only practices, and ancillary product lines.
Bloomfield Farms: Certified organic vegetable farm in Sonoma County, California with a multi-season CSA and on-farm pickup. Comparable in scale, organic-only practices, CSA-anchored model, and broad specialty vegetable/heb mix.
Full Belly Farm: Diversified organic farm in California's Capay Valley running a long-established CSA program alongside wholesale, farm events, and U-pick offerings. Comparable to Stones Throw as a family-owned, diversified-organic, CSA-anchored operation with on-farm member experiences and value-added products (honey, flowers, eggs).
Norwich Meadows Farm: Certified organic farm in upstate New York selling through CSA, farmers markets, and direct wholesale. The closest geographic and climate analogue to Stones Throw, both in New York State and in serving an organic produce customer via short supply chains.
Terra Firma Farm: Certified organic vegetable farm in Winters, CA operating a year-round CSA with home delivery and farm-pickup options. Comparable to Stones Throw in organic-only production, CSA-as-primary-channel model, and long-tenured subscriber base.
Suzie's Farm: Certified-organic urban-edge farm in San Diego running CSA subscriptions and on-site farm stand/dining experiences. Comparable on diversified specialty vegetables, CSA-first distribution, and experience-driven farm events that drive member retention.

Emerging players
