Torrwood Farm has been family owned and run since 1846, after the Kerr family emigrated from Scotland in 1840.  While farming is one of the main activities at Torrwood, that operation takes up less than 20% of the property.  Torrwood has a 56-acre patch of forest land and actively participates in the Forestry Program, replanting Chestnut trees that were wiped out in the early 1900’s to give the land back it's old guard of trees.  Torrwood Farm is home to many vibrant species, from owls, bears, wolves, fischer cats and foxes to name a few.  

Torrwood Farm incorporates a robust organic crop rotation in keeping with the latest research from universities and analytical laboratories to keep the living soil at its optimum level for sustainable production.  All of the fields are buffered by gorgeous old growth trees, black walnut, rare and special NY friendly redwoods and (literally) miles of old fieldstone walls which our ancestors culled from the cleared forests from the late 1800's.  Since 2020, we have hand planted 38 varieties of new apple trees along with three-hundred fifty forsythia and fifty-eight truffle inoculated oak trees.  Torrwood Farm also grows its own seasonal veggies in our raised bed garden.  Torrwood is the proud home of two bald eagles that dominate the skyline while feasting from the naturally occurring artesian spring well ponds that have an abundance of fish.  Torrwood's goal is to share the mountain with our neighbors, be good stewards of the land as was taught to us and bring top-notch products to market.
