The Lyons family started Blue Moon Acres on their farm in 1992 in Buckingham, PA in Bucks County as a CSA operation providing microgreens to New York City restaurants. By 2007 word had spread and they were able to expand their operation to include a 63 acre farm in Pennington, NJ. With a focus on sustainability they use bio diesel equipment and geothermal cooling and heating techniques plus avoiding the use of chemical pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers to focus on balancing soil chemistry, building good soil structure, and nurturing soil microbiology. The rice they grow is tested for arsenic and show levels that are at or near those considered "drinking water" safe.
