COMING SOON
Coming Soon from Van Meter Family Farms! 🍎🫐
We’re hard at work growing something sweet up here in the Catskills — from juicy blueberries to crisp apples and a whole lot of love in between. While our farm and future Airbnb retreat are still sprouting, we promise it’ll be worth the wait. So hang tight, keep your baskets ready, and check back soon. Good things take time… especially when they’re homegrown.
Our Story
We’re Rick Van Meter and Jennifer Chory—partners in life, love, and now, farming.
Our journey started on the set of a TLC reality show in 2020, sparked by one bold invitation and a kiss beneath the Brooklyn Bridge. Since then, we've traveled the country producing TV, but always dreamed of putting down roots.
In 2024, we found our place in the Catskills—a 23-acre blueberry farm and apple orchard that instantly felt like home. What began as a dream home quickly became something bigger: a place to grow, to gather, and to share.
Van Meter Family Farms is our little corner of magic. Whether you're picking fruit, staying at our retreat, or just soaking in the view, we hope you feel as inspired as we do every day.
Welcome to the farm. We're so happy you're here.
