A Visit to Stony Brook Valley Farm -  Beyond Halal - Faith in Food  June 2, 2012

Ryan and Sara Voiland of Red Fire Farm

Ryan acquired the farm shortly after 911, and decided to name it "Red Fire Farm."

Ryan chose “Red Fire Farm” partly to remember the fire event, and also because ‘New Red Fire’ is the name of his favorite red leaf lettuce variety.

Western Massachusetts is a different place. So many of the houses have farm stands out front that our friend Kamran [Bajwa], who grew up in the area, told us “in the summer, you never have to go to a grocery store.” Everywhere you look there is food, and people who care about food. 

Bilal [Mirza] also came out of this world, a world where good food is important. As a Harvard undergraduate and a runner, he started to learn more about health and nutrition, and began to really care about what went in his body.
