Sweet Tree Farm - Carlisle

Sweet Tree Farm offers a wide variety of products, including different cuts of steak, beef and pork roasts, ribs, chops, sausage, kebabs, bacon, ground meat, and chicken. Don't forget to check out their eggs and maple syrup too! They really utilize all parts of the animal, offering shank and marrow bones, dog bones, heart, tongue, oxtail, liver, and fat from beef and pig, which I really appreciate. You can find the friendly folks from Sweet Tree Farm at the Troy Farmers Market on Saturdays and the Schenectady Farmers Market on Sundays, or you can pick up your order directly at the farm by appointment. Everything is fantastic, and I can’t wait to try more from them. Keep it up, Sweet Tree!

- We’ve never been disappointed with any steak or larger cuts of meat; every steak has been absolutely delicious. - The meat is locally sourced, not mass-produced, and they prioritize humane practices. - The customer service from the owner and their family members has always been friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. - I appreciate that they now accept debit and credit cards for payment. - While their prices might be on the higher side, we can’t penalize them for that—after all, they’re providing a valuable service by offering local, humane meat, and it’s fair that they earn a living doing so. Plus, we don't need to consume a lot of meat; sometimes less is more! On that note, I would suggest they consider offering smaller steak portions. This way, customers could buy enough for a dinner for four without feeling awkward about purchasing just two large steaks. We’ve found that a pound of steak can be too much for one person, even when we want to indulge!

The staff is friendly and informative, and the meats and poultry are delicious. You can find them at the Troy Waterfront Farmers Market every Saturday.
