My recent visit to Avenue 33, an urban farm supported by the Anne Saxelby Legacy Fund (ASLF), was truly an eye-opening experience and not only reaffirmed these beliefs, but shed light on the profound impact sustainable farming can have on communities.

There is no time to donate money to charity like the present—though the holidays surely get the ball rolling. This year, Kristina Graeber—Director of Programs at the Anne Saxelby Legacy Fund—shares a list of her favorite food-related organizations (including ASLF of course) in hopes of furthering donations among New York readers, and then some.

The 2nd annual benefit for the Anne Saxelby Legacy Fund was held on September 13, 2023, in New York’s dynamic Chelsea Market, an event important enough to the NYC culinary community to close down this heavily-trafficked, historic market for the evening. Along with the American Cheese Society annual conference, the Cheesemonger Invitational, and other important cheese events throughout the year, aficionados might want to keep this one on their to-attend list in years to come as well, not so much for the cheese, (though of course it had its place,) but for the spirit.

The entire New York City (and beyond) food world gathered at Chelsea Market to celebrate the extraordinary life and mission of Anne Saxelby, the pioneering cheesemonger often credited with launching the artisanal cheese movement in the United States. Her shop, Saxelby Cheesemongers, first opened in Manhattan at Essex Market in 2006, a time when American cheesemaking was synonymous with commodity, mass-market products; at that time, chefs and gourmets looked to European producers for quality cheeses. Saxelby’s shop, an almost instant hit, was revolutionary for selling only American-made cheeses sourced from small producers; the shop’s mission was to support sustainable American agricultural practices and to help rural communities find sustaining markets for the goods they produce. Though she died in 2021 at the age of 40, her advocacy for American farmstead cheesemakers will be felt among American cheese makers, chefs, and cheese lovers for decades to come.

The view from the kitchen window was beautiful. The last day of July was proving to be one of the best of the summer, but I was nervous. The Catskills off in the distance were sublime, and closer to the house, my chickens were pecking noisily around the yard surrounding their coop. Even my favorite view didn’t help my nerves. I was awaiting the arrival of our farm apprentice, coming to live and work with us for the month of August. It would mean a stranger in this house with two introverts, a pasture filled with cows, and 100 chickens that we knew would be harvested in 3 days. I was as tense as a clock whose spring was wound too tight.
