Operations:
- Pick-your-own — berries, stone fruits, apples

- Floral workshops — seasonal arrangements and on-farm classes
- Handcrafted gift collections — “made for us here in New York State”
- Custom corporate gifting services
Membership: Red Tomato — the Northeast nonprofit produce-marketing label that verifies what it calls “righteous produce” — quality + grower-fairness + ecological practices.
Why it’s listed
The specific filter is Red Tomato membership — a third-party Northeast verification beyond OSM-existence. Red Tomato vets farms across multiple ethical dimensions (grower-fairness, environmental practices, quality) and represents the produce under its label. Combined with multi-generation family operation, the 18th-century farmhouse-as-event-space, and the on-farm culinary-dinner program, Hurd is doing substrate-and-cultural work that compounds beyond the bare orchard production.
Bioregional fit
Holley is in Orleans County, NY — [[niagara-frontier]] bioregion, the farm country between Rochester and Buffalo.
