Schneiders Farm has been a fixture of the Dix Hills/Melville community since the late 1950s. The farm grows its own corn, pumpkins, vegetables and flowers. The roadside farm stand, added in the late '70s, sells its own home-grown vegetables and produce. The farm and farm stand is open from mid-April to Christmas Eve. In spring and summer, find a beautiful array of plants, flowers, vegetable plants, herbs and hanging baskets. Summer adds fresh vegetables and produce. Come fall, you will find fresh corn, mums, scarecrows, hay bales and apples, and you can pick your own pumpkins off the vines in its vast fields. As Christmas approaches, Schneiders also stocks Christmas trees and holiday wreaths.
