Back to TopWho is Plaid Piper Farm... ?Plaid Piper Farm LLC was born from the VanAuken/Dalrymple Farm. It is a family farm that has been owned by the same family since 1808 when a Revolutionary War soldier Elijah VanAuken and his wife, Catherine purchased the original parcel. The only two structures at that time were a log cabin and grist mill. We are the 7th generation of that family. We are proud to tell you that we still live on the family farm. This is a rare occurrence in America, especially in New Jersey. With your patronage, we hope to keep this Farm active for many generations to come. Back to TopPlaid Piper Farm LLC
