The Farm

Fresh At Its Best

In 1912, Colonel William Copp established a working farm on Spring Island, cultivating the land and raising livestock. He employed local laborers and built 35 tenant homes to support the farm’s operation. Over two decades ago, a passionate Member revived this agricultural tradition, breathing new life into what is now known as Waterfall Farm. Though more modest in scale, the farm remains a proud tribute to Spring Island’s rich farming heritage -and a vibrant part of daily life for Members who embrace the “farm to table” lifestyle.

Waterfall Farm

What began with a simple field of corn has blossomed into a thriving, sustainable farm. Today, Waterfall Farm produces fresh vegetables during both the spring and fall seasons, thanks to raised beds with drip irrigation systems. A full-time farmer, a dedicated Member management team, and over 20 Member volunteers work together to cultivate the land and care for the crops.

When harvest season arrives, Members are invited to enjoy the bounty. Our chef regularly features Waterfall Farm’s produce in seasonal menus, bringing the freshest flavors straight to the table. In true harmony with the Island’s natural rhythms, extra crops are also planted to nourish the local wildlife -deer, raccoons, and all.
