Queens County Farm Museum is one of the longest continually farmed sites in New York State, dating back to 1697. It is currently undertaking the largest agricultural expansion in over 50 years. Milk & Honey Month, the only program of its kind in New York City, connects visitors to agriculture and the environment through the lens of the historic farm site.

Cornell University’s Dyce Lab for Honey Bee Studies has named Queens County Farm Museum part of its cohort in hive research. Queens Farm is a leader in the ecological well-being of New York City. Research will help inform work to support pollinators in an urban environment. New York Animal Agriculture Coalition has partnered with Queens County Farm Museum to educate the public on the New York State’s dairy industry and connect New Yorkers to New York State dairy farmers and producers.
