Ort Family Farm

Seeking a quieter lifestyle in 1999, we moved with our four children from South Central Pennsylvania to the beautiful Finger Lakes Region of New York. We purchased an abandoned 60 acre dairy farm with awesome views of the mountains and sunsets.

Over the years we have pursued many ideas on the farm but finally our journey has led us to return back to our roots in horticulture. Our passion for growing and producing unusual fruits and herbs has resulted in our farm now being home to an orchard of 600+heritage fruit trees, 3 acres of unusual small fruiting plants, a high tunnel with figs and specialty fruits and many raised beds of herbs. We’ve added greenhouses where we grow and sell an extensive assortment of potted fruiting plants, herb plants and grafted fruit trees. In recent years we have added a state licensed commercial kitchen to the farm where we create 100+ flavors of jams, 20+ herbal tea blends, as well as herbal seasonings, dip mixes and catnip items for sale using crops grown here on the farm.

You can find our plants and farm products for sale on this site. You can purchase online for pickup or to be shipped. You can also find us at several local farmers markets and regional events, as well as at other fine local retail shops. We also offer workshops, classes and consultations to help you with growing your own food.
