I heard a lot about this farm. So I gave it a try. Beautiful selection of local groceries local coffees, meats, fruits, vegetables, etc. Great selection of frozen sauces. You can make breakfast and dinner here. fresh eggs, fresh meat. I loved everything about it. Looking forward to getting home and cooking some other stuff.

8 Hands Farm has grown over the years and kept up their reputation for beautiful healthy organic food and items available for purchase from the farm. We love the addition of tables to stay and enjoy breakfast or lunch while shopping the lovely curated mix of soups, sauces, breads, spreads and produce. Delicious custard ice cream too. Wonderful !

My sister and I split 2 dozen eggs. The brown are chicken eggs. The white are duck eggs. 6-20-2021

I can't believe I didn't review one of my favorite spots on the North Fork. I dragged my Dad & Sister up & down the North Fork focusing on Greenport. 8 hands provided all kinds of delicious food goods. I tried the Fresh duck eggs which I used to make cakes. Rillettes which were delicious slightly warmed on crusty baguette. The Liver Pate was smooth & flavorful. I really enjoyed the Country Pate. It had more surprise ingredients than I've had in other Pate De Campagne but very good. Do stop by. The staff was also very helpful. 10-15-2024

Came here with my mom after she saw this place featured on Erica Marcus's Instagram Story because she had to try the Greek eggs, which absolutely lived up to the hype. Farm fresh, topped with Greek yogurt, spicy chili sauce and fresh herbs served along perfectly toasted homemade sourdough, that dish is absolutely chef's kiss. I was pretty happy with my egg sandwich as well, packed with pastrami, cheese and grainy mustard. The cafe is located inside the 8 Hands Farm store, where you can also buy goods from their butcher, farm fresh eggs, a variety of homemade pantry wares and frozen meals, along with freshly baked bread. Outside, they have local fruit and vegetable options to choose from as well. After we ate we shopped the store a bit and spent some time outside enjoying a small cup of their frozen custard, which was unlike anything I've ever tasted before. There's outdoor seating that features beautiful views of the farm and gives you a bird's eye view of all the sheep living their best lives out here. From the store we purchased garlic scapes, pickled eggs, a loaf of sourdough, farm fresh eggs and roast beef. Everything we bought was delicious but god, the prices are shocking. I paid for the jar of pickled eggs and loaf of sourdough...and my bill was $40. If you're coming here, come with deep pockets.

Since my first review, I've become a most-of-the-time resident of the north fork, and now visit 8 Hands Farm at least a few times a month. Some highlights: All of the pork sausages are fantastic. The seasonings- both the classic ones like breakfast sausage and the more interesting flavor combinations- are amazing, and they are rich without being greasy. The other pork products are great too. I used to think I didn't really like pork, but maybe what I didn't like was the colorless, flavorless factory-farmed variety. The pork they raise here- I believe they are tamworth pigs?- is a bit leaner and has a complex and sort of nutty flavor that I assume comes from being pastured. So good. The lamb is also wonderful, and when it's available we tend to get extra to freeze. The broccoli rabe is the best- roasted, sautéed, steamed, whatever. I love the duck eggs when they have them- they're a nice change from chicken eggs. And it's hard to resist the custard, especially when the flavors of the day are vanilla and coffee-- swirled together it gives me perfect Vietnamese coffee vibes.

During the Summer, I was listening to CBS News featuring 8 hands farm in Long Island and how professionals became farmers (2 adults + 2 kids = 8 hands) with regenerative farming. My friend a few weeks later mentioned that we should go out here since they have organic, grass feed animals. He d didn't watch the program I watched. It took me a while to figure out why this place sounds so familiar until I realized this was the place the news story was about. There was a sign saying closed though we saw 1 couple go in and decided to ask if we can quickly purchase some items. Fortunately we got there a little before they closed up shop to host their first private event. Really friendly staff, very knowledgeable. We quickly browsed through the meats, cheese, and egg selection even t though they told us to take our time. Everything was really used and nothing was wasted because I don't see innards sold very frequently. We were impressed with the meat quality and definitely will go back to purchase their items again.

Free happy chickens on the farm

The Quick : loved this off the path organic farm! They had great produce as well as preparing food with their offerings. Very socially distant, clearly taking precautions, overall a great spot! Enjoy PS we loved their organic orange tomatoes!

All cooked up!

We've visited 8 Hands Farm several times when in the area. They have a beautiful selection of...everything! Their bacon jam is definitely worth trying. I love their selection of handmade soaps and breads, but the real reason I come here is for their bags of locally-grown mushrooms! They come in a bag including (but not limited to) shiitake, lion's mane, crimini, etc. The bag is pricey at $12 but totally worth it! Never had their food truck or prepared meals but I look forward to checking that out in the near future!

Harbes Family Farm's Barnyard Adventure in Mattituck is an absolute gem for families visiting the…read moreNorth Fork in the fall! I brought my niece and nephew, and we easily had one of the funnest afternoons! The Barnyard Adventure is a paid area ($28.95 per person on weekends), but with eight acres packed full of things to do, it's worth every penny. To put the size in perspective ... it's like exploring six football fields lined up together! The highlights for the kids included getting up close with a variety of farm animals, a trike track, sports zone, and multiple playgrounds, pig races, a musical hayride ... there truly is something for all ages. The atmosphere is lively, especially with those pig races and musical hayride tours. My niece and nephew were totally engaged from start to finish. There are plenty of food stands throughout the property with the classic farm favorites. Apple cider donuts (my personal fav), popcorn, ice cream, and coffee stands for the grown-ups. Speaking of adults, a huge bonus is the vineyard right on the property. I treated myself to a glass of rosé to enjoy while the kids played, which was a nice addition. It does get busy, but the whole setup is well organized that it does not feel too crowded. Barnyard Adventure is one of those rare places that charms both kids and adults, making it a perfect fall or weekend family destination. I can't wait to come back next year for more memories (and donuts) with my niece and nephew!!

Loved this place for kids! I thought it would've been a bit pricey with nothing but honestly we…read morespent nearly 6 hours there. With access to leave and come back, which we loved, we enjoyed hayrides WITH a singalong! Animals, a lot of games, bounce pad and more. Everything was super clean and exactly what you think a farm should be hahahh. The workers were all sweet and kind. We did enjoy a cup of there chocolate chip cookie. Very good. You can bring in picnic food if you wish, but they had hot dogs and basics to purchase as well as a small farm stand in the front. I would highly recommend for families with children of various ages but more geared toward 10 and under. Cant wait to go back again this summer.

I've only experienced the smell of lavender through things like Glade Plug-ins and incense (embarrassing I know), so I was totally blown away by and caught off guard by how much I enjoyed it. The visual of the fields is simply breathtaking. The vibrant purple hues stretch literally as far as my eyes could see. If you're terrified of bees, perhaps sit this one out however even with my fear of bugs, I was somehow in a calm, relaxed state the entire time. One of the highlights was their super charming lavender shop. The shelves were filled with an array of lavender-infused products and if you're anything like me, you'll be tempted to smell and buy each one. I bought a few oils for my mom and a bar of natural honey soap for myself. I'm excited to try it! If you haven't been to Lavender by the Bay just yet, do yourself a favor and escape the hustle and bustle of daily life already by coming here! Use this review as your reminder to add Lavender by the Bay to your summer bucket list.
