The Milk Pail Fresh Market began more than 30 years ago. John learned about farming growing up on his father’s Mecox potato farm while Evelyn got her first taste for apple growing from her parents’ apple orchard in Vermont. In 1969 they began a tiny retail store to market their vegetables and sell the milk produced by their cows. They named the store The Milk Pail, since milk was their main product at the time. The following spring they planted their apple orchard and have been perfecting and adding award-winning varieties ever since.

In 1644, England gave Edward Howell 40 acres (16 ha)
of land near the new settlement of Southampton to
build a mill for settlers to grind their grain into meal. It
became a landmark, and people began referring to
other settlements that popped up as "east or west of
the watermill." By the 1800s, the area was known as
Water Mills and was later changed to Water Mill.
Howell's Water Mill was listed on the National Register
of Historic Places in 1983. Today, the hamlet boasts
its status as the only settlement on the South Fork of
Long Island with both a functioning watermill and
windmill.
