About us
Ed and Rebecca Staehr started Cayuga Pumpkin Barn - a seasonal roadside produce stand and thousands of pumpkins - in 2008. We offer farm-raised chicken year round, and turkeys at Thanksgiving. We are owners and operators of Staehr Family Farm, where we grow corn, alfalfa, soybeans and other field crops. Ed is the third generation of the Staehr family to work this land.
Ed and Rebecca each grew up on dairy farms in New York State. We have both worked in the agricultural service industry, including for Cornell Cooperative Extension.
Our mission is to farm in a way that supports our family, while acting as stewards of the environment.
When we started the roadside stand, some of our family were a little skeptical about what we'd do with all those pumpkins! But, we've met some great neighbors, as well as people visiting the area, who've become wonderful supporters and customers. We are looking forward to meeting you!
