I deprodded this article mostly based on a nagging doubt. There are three sources to reliable newspapers in the article, which is why I removed the PROD, but two are dead links from articles in the 90s, so I couldn't check those out. The third is from the New York Times, but it's a human interest story, and is not sufficient to pass WP:CORPDEPTH. The current news I'm finding after going through several pages on both Google and Google News is local stories of mostly trivial coverage "Best places to go in New Jersey etc." I don't think the article passes the notability guidelines for businesses, but I thought it better to take it here than to leave it in proposed deletion.

Keep I was doubtful when I first saw the article, but a search found additional reference material, such as this article from The New York Times, which is unequivocally an in-depth article about the farm from a reliable and verifiable source. Additional sources have been published over the decades to support a claim of notability as the last working farm in a densely built edge city / suburb.
