  • Mack Brook Farm Joins the Feast

    Mack Brook Farm is a beautiful 300-acre farm, nestled in the town of Argyle, New York. The property was purchased in 1928 and has since become the family home to four generations. Initially, Mack Brook was primarily a dairy farm. However in 2003, the family decided to begin raising Angus cattle, as Argyle has an environment naturally suited to that breed. A sophisticated understanding of genetics has allowed Mack Brook Farm to breed the very best cattle, producing extremely fine meat with superior flavor.

  • BLG Farm Joins the Feast

    Saratoga Plan is delighted to welcome BLG Farm to this year’s Feast of the Fields event. BLG Farm’s mission is to provide exceptional products to their customers and to promote development of the local farming community.  With the decline of available farmland and struggles in financial sustainability, it is essential to share knowledge and resources with others who have like-minded intent. The revolution to bring back locally grown, healthy, natural alternatives is growing. We are delighted to share in BLG’s support of the local community!
