August is a special month at Three Feathers Farm, in South Salem. That’s when its famous white sweet corn is ripe and available in the farm’s self-service garden house, which offers fresh-picked, non-GMO seasonal vegetables seven days a week, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., from May through October.

“Our number-one seller is our corn,” says Jeanine Haberny, who owns and operates the farm along with her husband, Joe. “We should have white sweet corn by the end of August 1, depending on the weather. We’ve been told that we have the best corn around.” 

Everything sold at Three Feathers is raised or grown on the farm, which also sells pasture-raised Black Angus beef all year round and fresh roaster chickens in the spring and summer. “We rotate our cows between five fields, so they always have green grass. We also bail our own hay, so we know exactly what our cows are eating. Our cows are happy and healthy, and it shows,” Haberny says.

Three Feathers is not certified organic, but the farm practices organic standards, she says, adding, “Our customers continue to come back time and time again to purchase our beef, chicken and veggies, because they know exactly where they come from.”

Three Feathers Farm is located at 371 Smith Ridge Rd. (Rte. 123), South Salem, NY, directly across the road from the Oakridge Shopping Center. For more info, call 914.533.6529 or email [email protected].
