Hello Folks. Sadly, the blueberry and raspberry season is already coming to a quick ending. Few blueberries left of the Blue Ray variety, have to search for the elusive blue ones already. Thanks everyone for such a great season. Shall remain open for approx another week for those that need the last berries of our short season.

The Farm is currently selling blueberries every day from 8am until 6pm daily. We hope to have raspberries through the month of July. The 3rd Annual Farmer’s Market is every Tuesday through the month of September behind the renovated, historic barn. We have farm fresh produce, honey, maple, baked goods, and many other small businesses selling products. Live music every week. Hours are 5-8pm changing to 4-7pm on Aug 9th. We understand that this being an election year that our fellow Vermonter’s running for office which to engage with the public. We encourage and invite our fellow Vermonters to engage the public here with just a few ground rules: – They must contact the farm and let us know they are coming – They must set up a tent and booth like the vendors. They are not allowed to wander the market discussing politics. – They are not allowed to speak on the public address system or have amplification  And the Farm is excited that Palmer Lane Maple Bus is here weekly set up at the Farmer’s Market.

Hello Everyone Last year we kind of oversold our cut your own Christmas trees at this time. This spring we had a problem with the Gypsy caterpillars which did damage to several 6-7 trees. I had to cut out several that were completely stripped. Many others were bare at the top. Also due to Covid, there is a serious lack of labor at many other Christmas tree Farms. Thus even starting in May, we were unable to locate any pre-cut trees at any reasonable price. One farm we contacted, was selling pre-cuts wholesale, minimum order of 500 for $50 each and that did NOT include shipping. And they were sold out already. Its going to be a tough year to find Christmas trees, the Farm has made the difficult decision to not sell trees this season., We will only be stronger for it next year, 2022 season. I don’t believe we will even have trees to transplant spring of 2022. Our regular supplier was sold out by May of this year. We are next on the list if they have any remaining. Its been a rough year with Covid and all of the supply and labor issues for everyone. Thank you for being understanding. Purinton Tree Farm in Huntington has beautiful trees as well as Handy Tree Farm in the south end of Williston. 

Due to the shorter days now, the Market is starting at 4pm and ending at 7pm for the remainder of the season. Season runs through August. There are still blueberries, many of the ones left may be soft, several bushes still have beautiful blueberries ripening. Open Daily for berry picking 8am until dusk. The farm also has some maple syrup for sale. We have the medium and dark amber as well as a limited supply of grade B available. Prices for maple syrup are $30 half gal, $18 quart and $12 pint.

The farm has been boiling Mother Nature’s sap into maple syrup when weather permits. Due to Covid this season we are sorry but can not allow visitors in the sugarhouse. We have maple syrup for sale at the back door of the house. Please call ahead and we can leave the maple syrup on the back steps of the house with a container for payment. So far we have been boiling a delicious Medium Amber / Amber Rich maple syrup. Its been cold so far this week yet the weather is looking better in the days ahead.  Use to be years ago we never got the buckets out and started tapping until Town Meeting Day first week of March. So although its been cold this season, its no different than years past. We expect a great season, we might even get another snow storm. We expect we shall soon by mowing grass in a few more months.
