For over three hundred years, one family has been
toiling the soil at Bayview Farm in Aquebogue. With the fifth and
sixth generation living on the land where they work, the commitment
to the land and to the products is almost religion. Brad Sr. and
Paul Reeve are working around the clock to bring to the people of
the North Fork the kind of products and service that should be provided,
considering the expertise the men have just by being who they are.
Their hard work ethic and neighborly ways helps bring the finest
vegetables, fruits, flowers, and baked goods to market daily. In
the late 1700's George Orry Reeve built the first home on the property
in Aquebogue. The Reeve family had settled in Southampton, New York
in 1636 originally as blacksmiths.
Now three hundred years later Reeve's are out
working the land on tractors and other large equipment to bring
their clientele the best there is in fresh farm grown products.
The market is located at 891 Main Street in Aquebogue and all inquiries
can be made by phoning 631-722-3077.
With spring planting happening right now, the
Reeve's are poised to give the kind of advice only three years of
farming North Fork lands can give. Their market has an outdoor feel
but protects you from the elements to make shopping at the Bayview
Farm Market a pleasant experience. Sometimes the buying of the ingredients
to wonderful meal is part of the experience of making the magic
in the meal. They are ready to help choose the right wine to go
with whatever you are making and the smell of their freshly baked
goods is hypnotizing. For years many have bragged about the quality
of their produce at the market and their prices are great as well.
