WE EMPOWER THE COMMUNITY
North Fork Authentic is the homegrown regional umbrella brand of the North Fork of Long Island, NY. We empower the community to thrive through connection, collaboration, innovation, education and promotion. Our purpose is economic sustainability for the region.
A UNIFIED APPROACH
Our ‘umbrella’ marketing approach provides opportunity to individual businesses to maintain their own brands and benefit from a single ‘North Fork’ message. We put North Fork businesses and organizations front and center – and passionately tell their authentic stories while communicating the value they provide.
WE CULTIVATE POTENTIAL
We work with businesses, organizations and government to develop initiatives and programs, expand audience reach, markets and distribution, while promoting the North Fork region. Our objectives are to increase awareness, value and demand for the North Fork to drive the local economy and create jobs for the community.
A MAGICAL PLACE
The North Fork is a verdant, diverse agri-and aquaculture region located 90 miles east of New York City. Surrounded by vibrant, clear waters, the peninsula is blessed with fertile soils, wildlife, flora, and a variety of maritime microclimates.
Our rich history and heritage as a farming and harvesting community was established almost four centuries ago. The North Fork has been producing for generations.
SMALL, DIVERSE COMMUNITY
The North Fork is geographically, socially, and economically diverse. Our goal is to unify this vibrant, fragmented community for the benefit of all, believing that “a rising tide lifts all boats”.
The North Fork is a world-class destination with a history of agriculture, aquaculture and viticulture offering a wide variety of unique, high quality goods, services and experiences. The region is uniquely positioned to serve the New York City metro area, the nation and the world.
STEWARDSHIP, BEST PRACTICES & FAIRNESS
While the North Fork is a delicate ecosystem, we believe sustainable economic growth is attainable if smartly managed – to preserve quality of life, the environment, and our food producing legacy for future generations.
