About Us
"Origins:
Knapp Farm was founded in 1796 by Jacob Lowman. Jacob Lowman, originally from Middletown, PA, purchased the land that would become his farm from Captain John Spaulding, a revolutionary war soldier and veteran of the Battle of Newtown. Fully half of the land that the farm sits on has been designated as part of the Battle of Newtown battlefield. Jacob Lowman first built himself a log cabin and began clearing the land for farming. Then, in 1819, he built a larger home in the Federal style. The Knapp family still occupies this home today. Jacob had seven children and built homes for several of them near his original homestead. These houses still stand today. His son Edward opened the Lowman Rye Whisky distillery and produced whiskey from rye grown on the farm. The distillery operated until it was shut down by Prohibition. Jacob's descendants continued farming the land with a variety of crops and animals. Today, the 8th generation of Jacob's family is actively involved in all aspects of the farm.
The Farm Today:
Knapp Farm is primarily a fruit farm today. The farm's main crop is blueberries. In 1985, Ellen and Jason Knapp, the current operators of the farm, enlisted the aid of Cornell University to begin a small commercial blueberry planting. Marvin Pritts of Cornell's Horticultural Sciences Department advised the Knapps on site selection, varietal selection, and sound cultural practices. Today, this planting is at full production and benefits from integrated pest management techniques and trickle-drip irrigation. Varieties in this planting include Blue Crop, Blue Ray, Northland, and Patriot."
