Valley Crest was founded with the local community in mind. Originally a family farm built to keep the founder's kin close and engaged, it was quickly realized that this beautiful property could be a resource for the greater Hunterdon County community.
Through the formation of a dedicated board, a three-pronged mission was born. Valley Crest would provide donations of fresh produce to local food pantries, offer opportunities for outdoor recreation to all, and provide educational programming to students of all ages focused on sustainability. Each of these prongs relate back to two values celebrated at Valley Crest; community and sustainability. By offering pick your own produce and educational classes to the public, Valley Crest welcomes neighbors to explore the farm and interact with the land from which their food is grown.
