"A beloved, long-standing small farm whose owner has been a fixture at the city’s farmers’ market since the mid-1980s, prized by chefs for exceptionally flavorful Tristar strawberries, ramps, and a wide range of specialty produce — from cornichons, Canestrino tomatoes, peas, and wild blueberries to tender sucrine lettuce, Lyonnaise potatoes, and even hand-sewn princess pine garland. His potato chips were integral to a restaurant’s breakout potato-chip salad, and chefs repeatedly praise his deep knowledge, generosity, and uplifting presence (famously arriving with large deliveries), saying his retirement will leave a real gap in both menus and market life." - Chris Crowley
