Earlier this summer we hopped in the truck with Phil Haynes, Director of Farm Operations at Sky High Farm, while the farm team wrapped up making hay for the winter.

Making hay at Sky High Farm is mostly a race against the weather. The grass gets cut when it’s at its most nutritious, then needs enough dry days to cure before it can be baled and brought in.

Too dry and you start to lose nutritional value. Too wet and things get more serious. Moisture trapped inside a bale can cause microbial activity that generates heat. If enough heat builds up, the hay can actually catch fire.

For farms in the Northeast, getting it right matters. The hay made over the summer is what helps keep cattle fed through the winter, making it an important part of how Sky High Farm manages its livestock throughout the year.

Cut it. Dry it. Bale it before it rains. Easier said than done.

Why does our Strawberry Jam start at Greig Farm?

Everything grown at Sky High Farm is donated to food access partners. So when we started making pantry goods, we had to look beyond the farm for ingredients.

For strawberries, we found Greig Farm in Red Hook, New York.

Norman has been farming here for decades, and Casey manages the strawberry crop today. We spent a morning with them during harvest to learn a little more about where our fruit comes from.

Then we made jam with it.

Back in stock now.

Back in June, we spent the public volunteer day at Sky High Farm planting tiny seeds that grew into this towering bed of zinnias and cosmos. 

These flowers help create a healthy ecosystem at the farm by bringing pollinators to the garden beds, which are crucial to fertilizing and growing produce. They’re also harvested and arranged into bouquets for distribution to Sky High Farm’s food access partners, and used in their educational programming for nature based art projects. So many benefits are reaped from just one day of sowing. 

The last volunteer day of the summer is Friday, September 4th. Come spend the day with us. Sign up at the link in bio.

We believe good skincare starts with good soil.

Grass-fed tallow, calendula, h**p oil and ozonated olive oil.

That’s pretty much it.

Our twice sold out all-purpose tallow balm is available now at the link in bio.

Every purchase supports a better food system.

A morning at Greig Farm.

Norman has been farming here for decades. Casey manages the strawberries now, and for a few weeks every summer, a lot of life around the farm revolves around getting them picked while they’re good.

We get the strawberries for our jam here, so we went up to see what that actually looks like.

Mostly: a lot of strawberries.

And a lot of work.

Strawberry jam is back in stock and available at the link in bio.

Phil Haynes planted this native warm season grass pasture and wildflower pollinator meadow at Sky High Farm back in March 2025. A year and a half later, it’s finally starting to look how it was intended.

As Sky High Farm continues to restore and steward this land, rebuilding healthy ecosystems is part of the work. Instead of planting a single grass, this field is a mix of native grasses, flowers and forbs that all have a job to do. Together, they provide food for pollinators, habitat for birds, insects and other wildlife, and forage for the cattle in early spring and fall.

It takes longer to establish and a little more work to manage, but that’s part of the point. The goal isn’t just to grow something here, but to create a pasture that supports more life above and below the soil.

As Phil told us, it’s also one of the easiest places on the farm to actually see what rebuilding an ecosystem can look like.

Now we just have to see what the cows think.

Going organic takes a while.

For cotton, there’s a transition period where farmers are already changing how they grow, but their crop can’t yet be certified and sold as organic.

That can make for a few pretty tough years.

The cotton in our collection with Levi's includes transitional cotton, which helps create a market for what farmers are growing during that in-between period.

Basically, supporting the process and not just the finished product.

The Levi’s + Sky High Farm Goods collection is available now at the link in bio.
