Fellenz Family Farm Tour
1919 Lester Road, Phelps, NY
We made a visit to the the Fellenz
Family Farm in July 2010. Join us on
this spring tour with Andy Fellenz
as he explains organic farming for three CSAs (community supported
agriculture), the farm stand, and U-pick organic strawberries. Andy will tour
us through their three small greenhouses
for transplant production and six high tunnels. Andy will also have transplants
available for sale to add to your own vegetable and herb gardens. Fellenz
Family Farm is located 1.2 miles south on Lester Road from Route 96 just east of Main Street Phelps. Park on the east side of the road near the farm stand.
