About Seed Song Farm

Seed Song Farm produces sustainably-grown vegetables, herbs, berries, flowers, and forest products, available through CSA shares (weekly pickup of fresh produce at the farm), local farmers' markets, and on-site farmstand, and charitable donations. The Farm's commitment to health and sustainability goes far beyond the exclusion of harmful chemicals, as we will take the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New York's (NOFA-NY) Farmer's Pledge. We use indigenous plants both for production, consumption, public activities, and habitat for beneficial plants and insects, including pollinators and natural insect predators.
About Seed Song Center

By growing, sharing, and celebrating our food together, we evolve our local culture toward an equitable and sustainable land access and stewardship. Seed Song Center organizes youth summer programs; an afterschool program; field trips for schools, community groups and businesses; and farm-based educational events, workshops and festivals.
The People

Creek grew up across the Catskills in Otsego County, but has lived most of his life in the mid-Hudson Valley where he worked as a naturalist, environmental educator, summer camp co-coordinator, and progressive teacher before becoming a sustainable community farmer. Creek taught natural science and music at the Randolph School of Wappingers Falls, an experiential school dedicated to the greatest possible self-fulfillment of every child. Creek led summer camp programs at the Randolph School for over 10 years, as well as at Manitoga Nature & Design Summer Camp, and has also worked at summer programs for Clearwater, Wappingers Recreation Department, and Cooperstown Schools Summer Program. In the 1990's Creek was the Resident Naturalist at John Burroughs Sanctuary in West Park. Creek transitioned from teaching to farming in 2008, beginning as an apprentice at Common Ground Farm in Beacon. He has also managed farms at Sylvester Manor Educational Farm in Shelter Island, Brook Farm Project in New Paltz, and Whirligig Farm in Hurley, always working hard with his crew and extended farm family to incorporate education, music and the arts, and community celebrations into the life of the farm. Creek has been active with local farm organizations such as Mid-Hudson Collaborative Regional Alliance for Farmer Training (MH CRAFT), Northeast Organic Farming Association of NY (NOFA-NY), and the Rondout Valley Growers.
