FARMERS Of LONG ISLAND

June 25, 2020 - August 21, 2020

For this project, I wanted to focus on the different faces and the people behind the dying farming industry within my local area. Having said that, my project features a variety of both family-run and operated farms located in New York and specifically on the East End of Long Island.

This project would not have been possible without the cooperation of the following individuals. Thank you to all parties who made this project possible and for bringing my vision into fruition.

Teddy Bolkas - Thera Farms

Melanie Marzano - Lewis Oliver Farm Sanctuary

Paul McCormick - Great Gun Shellfish

Abra Morawiec - Feisty Acres

Eric Phillips - Acabonac Farms

Jean Schmitt - Schmitts Family Farms

Peter Stein - Peeko Oysters

Peter Treiber Jr. - Treiber Farms

John Zilnicki - Zilnicki Farms
