Sweet Corn
Sweet Corn
Tender, supersweet ears in three successive plantings for a long farm-stand season, late summer into fall.
Nourishing the Mind, Body & Soul
Organic, farm-fresh food for a healthy lifestyle — grown on healthy, no-till soil by a family that loves this land in Randolph, New York.
A Family Farm Since 2021
Rooted in Randolph, grown with care
Tompkins Farm & Land is a family farm in the rolling hills of Cattaraugus County, founded in 2021 by Mark & Tammy Tompkins. Across roughly a dozen acres we grow sweet corn, sunflowers, pumpkins, and garden vegetables — the honest, wholesome food a family is proud to share.
We farm differently on purpose: no-till ground, living clover cover, and as little spray as the land will allow. Healthy soil grows healthy food, and healthy food brings people closer.

Why No-Till
We don't fight the soil. We feed it.
Tilling tears apart the living world beneath our feet. We leave it intact — and let nature do the heavy lifting.
Living clover cover
A white-clover living mulch blankets our fields, fixing 100–200 pounds of natural nitrogen per acre and shading out weeds before they start.
Undisturbed earth
No plows, no churning. Roots, worms, and fungi stay where they belong — building structure that holds water and resists erosion.
Spray only where needed
No pre-emergent chemicals and no blanket spraying. Just a narrow in-row band at planting and 50-foot clover buffers around every field.
Our Family
Run by the Tompkins family
Tompkins Farm is owned and worked by Mark & Tammy Tompkins — with three daughters and five grandchildren never far from the fields. We grow for the same reason most families cook: to bring everyone to the table.
This is a young farm built the honest way, by hand, one season at a time.

And then we cook
Growing it is only half the joy. The other half happens in the kitchen and around the grill — and at the Tompkins table, nobody leaves hungry.

Farm to Table
Food brings people closer through shared experiences
The best part of growing food is sharing it. From the field to the family table, our harvest is meant to be enjoyed together.
