(V is for) Victory Farms

A foray into home farming in Huntington Station, New York, Victory Farms, founded in early 2008, is named in honor of Vincent, a young man who lost his life in WWII (and whose family lived at and farmed this land in the 1940s) and the so-called victory gardens that Americans grew to supplement their rations during wartime. Vincent's family left a makeshift cement monument of sorts to him ("Our Boys") and his friend Pat that remains embedded in our patio.

10 bales of straw in the back of our Chevy means we can close up the farm today!
