Summer 2022 – We are again Serving Gotham Project’s NYS Wine in a Keg

We are so happy to be back open and serving up Gotham Project’s wine on tap!
Beside the CEO, Bruce Schneider being a great longtime friend of Ray, their wine in a keg is simply fantastic.  You don’t know what your missing – we have two kinds on tap ($9 a glass)!
(Yes we also have a great local Bronx Pale Ale)

2019 GOTHAM Riesling, “The Finger”, Finger Lakes. Where it all began. Gotham’s first and signature wine, “The Finger”. From Doyle and Fulkerson Vineyards, prime sites on Seneca Lake. Vinified separately, then blended together to find a perfect balance at about 7.8 grams of acid balanced by approximately 10 grams sugar. This youthful and delicate wine dazzles with its multi-dimensional nose of tangerine, lime, and stone fruit. The lightly sweet palate introduces pomelo and Key lime along with acidity that lights up the wine’s light, zesty and vibrant body with pleasantly lower alcohol. An engaging array of summer flowers scents the back palate and fades into the modest finish.

 

2019 SCHNEIDER & BIELER Rosé “Empire”, New York. A true NY Rose. Cabernet Franc from the Dalrymple Vineyard on Seneca Lake meets Cabernet Franc and Merlot from the Onabay Vineyard on the North Fork of Long Island. Only 6 hours of skin contact prior to pressing, followed by fermentation and aging in stainless steel at cool temperatures to preserve the wines’ fresh fruit notes and bright aromatics. The three components were fermented separately with different yeast strains. The result is a delicious balance of berry notes complimented by savory notes and a mouth-watering salinity on the finish.

Opening Day Lunch Saturday June 25th noon-3pm

 

Thanks to everyone for your support and patience during this time when we felt it best not to host public gatherings at the farm. We are thrilled to re-open and cannot wait to see our neighbors, friends and family at the farm. We will be starting off slowly and differently from past years, so stay tuned for ongoing announcements, events etc. as the season unfolds.

OPENING DAY LUNCH!!!!!

We are starting with a crowd favorite – Ray’s famous pulled pork sandwich served with 2 seasonal sides ($25).  Yes there will be GF options (GF bun), a Vegetarian sandwich option (“pulled” mushrooms and seasonal vegetables) and a kid’s option (sheet pan cheese pizza).  Our taps will be flowing with great NYS wine, beer and kombucha!

If you can please reserve your plate in advance.
We are capping the event at 75 guests so may sell out! We would really appreciate it if you could pre-pay online so we can better plan ahead and make it a great day all around!

Purchase tickets here! 

Very eventful 2019 season on the farm!

To say it was an eventful 2019 season is an understatement. Despite a rainy and cold start, the late spring, summer, and fall was filled with fabulous seasonal  food, local drinks, local entertainment, along with quiet moments of petting a goat and searching for that perfect tomatoes.  We hosted formal sit down dinners thanks to Chef Patti Jackson and Saul Bolton,  Friday Happy Hours where the likes of Hey Bub, Dream to Be,  Leonisa Ardizzone, and the Bunkhouse Boys provided live music while people enjoyed everything from stuffed cabbage to shephard’s pie to corn fritters and more,  themed Sunday afternoon like Build a BLT, Pierogies and Pints, along with great BBQs, pig roasts and brunches and managed to fit in many great private events to celebrate family milestones and corporate happenings.
Enjoy the pictures!

We Finally Have Chef in Residence!!! Meet Sujan Tuladhar

We first met Sujan a few years back when he was  part of the amazing  crew at Deer Mountain Inn. Since that time he has often come to help out at events, hang out with Ray and enjoy the uniqueness of cooking on a farm. Sujan is committed to the concept that the food that he creates reflects the farm that it comes from, and the community it serves.

Sujan knows our customers, family and friends  can taste the local difference and appreciates what cooking in season actually entails. We know he will  bring his true true culinary technique, wisdom, and professionalism to Ray’s produce.

Real farm-to-table cooking  means  that you need to consider ingredients first, and recipes second. Sujan is going to do that and more and we just cannot wait!!!!

We hope you will join us in welcoming him on the farm! This means that:

Starting May 31st we will be…
  • Open every Friday from 5-8 PM for family friendly Happy hours with small plates and bites paired with our beer, wine and cider on tap!

Max Delivery and Bradley Farm! A winning combo!

BAD NEWS GOOD NEWS….

YES 97TH STREET CUSTOMERS, ITS TRUE. 
It’s been a long time coming, but Ray has made it official.  He will no longer be coming down to the 97 Street Market.
Ray loved all his years there – so so many of his customers have become close personal friends. He will miss all of you, miss his special coffee and sandwiches. But the reality of the situation is multifaceted. It was getting very difficult for him physically and mentally to do back to back markets and the financial vialbility of the market has been waning for many years. 

The GOOD news is that:
1- the farm is only 87 miles away
2- the Brooklyn market is a 25 minute train ride away

3- MAX DELIVERY will now be carrying some of Ray’s Pork!!
