About Patriot Farm
Patriot Farm is owned by Gary Schulze and Ann Marie Snyder. Longtime Ridgewood, NJ residents who met in 1998 as volunteers serving on the Ridgewood Fourth of July Celebration Committee. Today, they are bringing to life a more personal plan: a new home for their family, an equestrian facility for their teenage daughter, and a vegetable farm for Gary, a recently retired general contractor and avid gardener.
Attracted by the natural beauty and horse-friendly history of Saddle River, the couple purchased a 19-acre site in the borough in 2015. The property has a long history of being utilized as open space and for agricultural purposes.
Gary started his vegetable farm in the Spring of 2016. Ann Marie began designing the elements necessary for a top-of-the-line equestrian facility so their daughter and her horses would have more time training and less time commuting to a boarding barn.
