Stoneleigh Farms of Carmel/Brewster, N.Y.

[nym9nyj7]

Hey guys,

Posted about this once before, but the thread kinda died. Was wondering if anyone knows anything about "Stoneleigh Farms" out of Carmel & Brewster, New York. I live in the area, but until I bought an old pint from a local dealer, I didn't even know the place existed. Internet searches have yielded little information, but I'm interested to know the story of the farm. It seems as thought it went out of business a long time ago, but that's about all I know. Anyone familiar with it?

Thanks!!

I have/had a bottle from there, no clue as to the history but I'm guessing the BFW is a good place to start....

Not finding anything on the BFW. There is a BFW Farms currently in existence, but it was established in 2001. :-(

Epackage, this is great!!! How did you find all of this? I searched for hours to no avail... Anywho, thanks a lot, I can't wait to share this with my Dad and go check out the woods behind the "Barnes Building Medical Offices!!"

I find when searching Google many times the less you type into the search box the more you find, it was awhile ago so I don't remember exactly what my search method was here... Happy to help though[]
