Besides the 4 historical barn structures, we currently have organic vegetable & herb gardens, a small apple orchard,
one rooster, 5 chickens, 6 cats and lots of rolling hills, open meadows, and fresh air......oh and amazing fresh spring

A seasonal farm stand located in front of Turquoise Barn Gallery is where we sell organic produce which is grown
using methods from both permaculture & biodynamic practices. We also sell fresh organic blue eggs from our
chickens who are pasture fed and supplemented with organic feed and kelp to make them extra tasty and healthy
(the eggs, not the chickens). Inside the barn you can purchase local products such as maple syrup, raw honey, &
beeswax candles.

What's on the Farm
| Who? Turquoise Barn is a former dairy farm located in the Western Foothills of New York's Catskill Mountains. The farm is home to 4 historic buildings which are now the residence, studio, workshop, and gallery (Turquoise Barn) of two artists formerly of East Williamsburg in Brooklyn, NY - Michelle Premura & Michael Milton. Michelle is a mix-media sculptor who graduated from the University of Colorado- Boulder in Fine Arts. She also graduated as a gemologist from the Gemological Institute of America in Santa Monica, CA and studied jewelry design & manufacturing at the Instituto de Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Her passion for healthy living led her to become a certified raw & live food chef and instructor. Michael is a painter, sculptor, & performance artist who graduated from the School of Visual Arts in NYC and with an MFA from the University of Colorado in Boulder. What? Currently the farm and gallery are available to rent for small or large gatherings including retreats, weddings, photo & video/movie shoots .
