Ramsey’s Farm

There is another ramseys farm in New Jersey I do not know if they are related, I think not
Mrs Ramsey was a strong bold outgoing wonderful Swedish woman who created this incredible oasis of a simple down– to– earth GENUINE farm kn the south east corner of Scarsdale New York. Yes, Scarsdale New York!
My Nisei Japanese-​American parents discovered this oasis in 1958 when they moved us to Scarsdale «to get the best education possible». My dad too, had a lovely garden in our back yard but ran to Mrs Ramsey’s farm 2 – 3 times EVERY week the minute she opened in late June to buy her spectacular super super fresh DELICIOUS CORN!!!
Sadly she passed away too young 20 years ago but amazingly, her son took over and now with his beautiful Hispanic wife and lovely two small children STILL run this amazing farm. I am sure many developers have pestered them to sell out/​make monster profits by selling their land. But somehow her son keeps working striving very very hard to provide the lucky neighbors with huge vine ripened tomatoes, the Best fresh beans I have ever found, fragile ducats arugula, with some soil still attached to the sweet roots, pale celadon peppers, magnificent miniature Japanese eggplant, miniature white delicate eggplant and beautiful Italian parsley cilantro dill. And on and on and kn .
I now live in far away Minnesota. Our corn here is very good, but no where near as delicate and consistently sweet as Mrs Ramsey’s.
I just moved my daughter to westchester and have visited this rare wonderful farm many times in the last month.
And I return home with Mrs Ramsey’s corn yes, in my suitcase!
