From Our Farm To Your Table

Located a half a mile east of the resort

The farm is home to two 30′ x 96′ growing houses, a greenhouse and a high tunnel.

Rooted in sustainably

We focus on regenerative organic agricultural practices for the enhancement of soil health, native plant propagation to preserve pollinator biodiversity.

Harvest to the Kitchen

We harvest our produce daily and deliver directly to our kitchens for use at Slopeside Pub & Grill and banquets. Excess produce is donated to our local food pantries.

  • We practice organic agricultural methods to enhance our soil health and the health of our environment. We do not use any chemical inputs.
  • We grow over 100 different varieties of produce, herbs, and flowers annually.
  • In addition to the harvest, we design fresh floral arrangements and seasonal planter arrangements for the resort lodges and floriculture landscape. 
  • We focus on native plant propagation and landscaping to support and preserve the biodiversity of pollinators and wildlife. 
  • In 2022, we added four honeybee hives to the farm. Honeybees are responsible for pollinating about 1/3 of agricultural plant crops. 
  • In 2021, we received a grant from Monarch Watch for over 500 milkweed plants to support monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) conservation. In July 2022, the monarch butterfly was added to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as Endangered. 
  • We work with local agricultural and environmental organizations and farmers to educate and support our community.
  • In 2022, we are hosting the first annual Carbon County PSU Extension Open Gate Farm Tour. 
  • Every week of the growing season, we donate excess produce to our local food pantries including the: West End Food Pantry of Kunkletown, Palmerton CACPAC Pantry, Zion Delly Berger Pantry of Lehighton, and Lehighton Senior Housing. 

Farm to Plate

Slopeside Pub & Grill utilizes fresh produce from The Farm in a variety of dishes, like the marinated steak salad.
