Essex Farms

Stuart Farr recently visited in north-east NY State, with a UK dairy farmer friend of his. It is a fascinating farm best described by the farming wife, Kristin Kimball, in her book "The Dirty Life" (prior to getting her hand dirty, Kristin was a professional writer in NYC).

On Stuart's visit, Kristin was away. Mark, her husband, was very gracious and they spent a lot of time with him as he explained what they were doing and are planning to do with the farm.
