Blue Hill at Stone Barns Told a Story Too Good to Be True, Former Employees Say | Eater
"A nonprofit regenerative farm and educational center founded in 2004 on land formerly part of a Rockefeller dairy estate, intended to model small‑scale, ecologically minded agriculture and serve as a living laboratory for chefs, farmers, and the public. The center supplied produce, livestock, and pedagogical context that helped shape the restaurant’s cuisine and storytelling; it is influential in the sustainable‑food movement. Former workers, however, alleged dysfunction in aspects of the farm’s livestock program and raised concerns about how the center’s charitable and commercial activities intersected with operational challenges between roughly 2016 and 2021, complicating claims that the site was an unambiguous, replicable model for regenerative agriculture." - Meghan McCarron
