An Edible Forest in the Finger Lakes
SHEF’s MISSION
Slate Hill Edible Forest (SHEF) is a 27 acre permaculture library orchard, plant nursery, and research farm located in Marcellus, New York. The farm’s main goal is to create a sustainable, enduring fruit orchard and botanical collection that can adapt to the changing climate and serve as a teaching tool for the future of farming.
