- Torrey Farms is a large family farm located in Elba, New York, with a satellite property located in Potter, New York. It is one of the largest vegetable-crop farm operations in New York. Together its two lots total some 10,000 acres, composed primarily of muckland, in the instance drained swampland. The farm grows mainly specialty vegetable crops, such as sweet corn, onions, carrots, cabbage, squash, cucumbers, and potatoes, which is generally what is produced on muckland. The main farm in Elba comprises about 8,000 and spans parts of Orleans, Niagara and Genesee counties. The 1,200-acre (4.9 km2) property in Potter, New York, makes up the majority of a valley of muckland that stretches all the way from Potter to Gorham, New York along Flint Creek. It was a swamp until it was drained in the 1950s. Not all of the valley is owned by the Torreys. The valley itself was close to being the 12th of the Finger Lakes. The muckland in Elba is thought to be the largest continuous section of muckland in the world. (en)
