The Day Dream Farmer

Saratoga's favorite local farm cooperative (CSA) and garden center

EST 2022

A Local Farm Cooperative

I'm Aliza Pickering, the creator of The Day Dream Farmer. Raised on my family's farm, I left for a time but was ultimately drawn back by my passion for connecting people to their food and local farms. After running my own CSA, selling to restaurants, and managing a nonprofit farm, I was ready to build something of my own.

The Day Dream Farmer began in 2022 as an extension of my family’s long-standing garden center and farm in Arlington, VT. What started as a small expansion quickly grew into something more. Today, The Day Dream Farmer is my way of bridging the gap between small farms, community, health, and nature—helping more people understand where their food comes from and why it matters.
