Photos (Lexi Van de Walle): Sang Lee Farms U Choy, Quail Hill, 2008
Check out the article and the really helpful list with phone numbers and web addresses--- be sure you reserve your weekly delivery of Long Island Grown foods this growing season (May to November) before it's too late.
As the article states, many of the farms are certified organic (and local) and others use organic practices (and don't pay the high fees for the certification). Looking at the list of farms, I can assure you these are all sustainable and ecologically sound farmers and local and any spraying they do is "low spray"!
This lighthearted locavore is delighted to see Newsday supporting local agriculture!!!
Thanks, Ms. Carter.
