What they do
Edgewater Farm is a family-owned [[farm|working farm]] at 246 NH Route 12A in Plainfield, NH — on the Connecticut River, Sullivan County. The flagship farmstand opens in June with [[strawberry|strawberry]] season and closes mid-October. Restocked daily from the farm’s own fields and coolers.
The distinguishing operation: an on-site commercial kitchen that specializes in “making the most out of excess crops” — converting glut-season [[zucchini|zucchini]] into noodles, surplus tomatoes into fresh salsa, and other transformations that turn what would otherwise be field-loss into shelf-stable retail product.
Why it’s listed
The value-added-from-excess practice is the substantive filter. Most small farms accept field-loss as a built-in cost (10-30% of harvest discarded due to imperfect appearance or volume oversupply at peak). Edgewater Farm built a commercial kitchen specifically to address that loss, converting potential waste into additional revenue. That’s a structural commitment to closing the food-waste loop within the operation itself — a substrate-builder pattern most farms don’t pursue.
