About
Mission
Corbin Hill Road Farm exists to regenerate land, build long-term community wealth, and cultivate perennial food systems that strengthen local sovereignty. Our mission is to steward 95 acres in a way that restores ecological health, supports farmer livelihoods, and creates pathways for shared posterity through a Perpetual Purpose Trust (PPT).
We commit to practices that honor the land, sustain rural economies, and expand access to high-quality food and education for generations to co
Vision
We envision a living landscape where agroforestry, community stewardship, and equitable governance shape a resilient future for the Schoharie Valley and beyond.
Our vision is a farm that:
-
Demonstrates regenerative agroforestry at a significant scale
-
Protects land permanently through mission-centered ownership
-
Serves as a training ground for farmers, educators, and youth
-
Generates value-added products that circulate wealth locally
-
Connects people to perennial food, soil, and long-term ecological care
This work is rooted in building systems that endure, economically, ecologically, and socially.
Pillar One
Perennial Intercropping for Cash Flow & Early Profitability
​
Hazelnuts inoculated with truffle spores, along with elderberries and black currants processed into value-added goods, create a reliable early-income engine for the farm. These crops mature quickly, generate consistent returns, and support near-term operational stability.
​
Perennial intercropping provides the farm’s first wave of regenerative profitability, laying the foundation for early reinvestment and community-centered benefit-sharing.​
Pillar Two
Legacy Plantings for Intergenerational Wealth
​
Black locust, black walnut, and other long-horizon species build durable biological assets that grow in value over time. Their natural cycles, coppicing, nut production, timber maturation, create repeated harvests that strengthen the farm’s long-term economic foundation.
​
These legacy plantings anchor a model of wealth-building through stewardship, where trees, fungi, and soil fertility generate value across generations and support shared posterity.
