What is a Food Co-op?
A Food Co-op is a group of families buying food together and sharing the labor involved to save money and/or to get better products or products normally unavailable in their area.
What is Purple Dragon Co-op?
Purple Dragon Co-op was formed in 1987 to bring natural foods into our area at prices closer to wholesale. In 1989, we began working to improve the availability of exquisitely fresh organic produce for our members. Janit London, a songwriter and veteran of many food co-ops, with 20 years’ experience in the Natural Foods business, designed Purple Dragon’s unique format, i.e., a new low-labor co-op model that works for today’s busy families.
There is a local co-op in Croton. For more info: http://www.purpledragon.com/index.html

Our farm market is open all year 7 days a week! Mon - Sat 9am to 5:30pm, Sun 9am to 2pm
We grow vegetables, herbs & flowers, and board horses on our small, sustainable heritage farm in the lower Hudson Valley that has been in our family for a century. We grow a diverse array of vegetables in two gardens, which comprise less than one acre. In 2010, all our produce is being sold direct to customers through an email order system. I choose to grow many heirloom, open-pollinated varieties, which have wonderful, unique flavors and colors. I also enjoy growing a variety of culinary herbs, edible flowers, perennial flowers, and vibrant summer cutting flowers. I dry flowers throughout the season and sell my everlasting flower bouquets in fall & winter.
We believe that local food systems are vital for the sustainable future of our community and country.
