About Our Farm
Located
along the Molly Stark Trail, the farm consists of 55 acres, which is wooded with
Sugar Maple trees. The 200 + year old farm house sits along Whetstone Brook.
There are two horse barns, many outbuildings, a hen house and the original sugar
house. The farms unique history of sugaring has come and gone.
In 1954, the farm was
featured in National Geographic, in the April Issue depicting sugaring scenes in
Vermont.
We are
very proud to revive the sugaring operation with a new sugarhouse and gift
store. Our sugarhouse was built by us and is of post and beam construction. The
frame came from a 200 year old building located in downtown Brattleboro.
Amazingly, it was transformed into our "New" sugarhouse. It even has the
original pegs that hold the frame together.
We also
built our gift store. The timbers for the frame came from trees that were logged
from our farm. The frame was hand hewn and hand drilled. (It was a labor of
love.)
It
brought us to our goal of having a sugarhouse to produce our Maple Syrup and a
store to sell it in.
Our
sugarhouse is attached to our country gift store and filled with our Vermont
maple syrup and maple products. We have local crafts, gifts, baskets, linens and
candles. We also have Vermont made cheese, sausage, mustards, jams, dips and
vinegars. We have fudge, cookies and a whole selection of home baked goods,
which include the best pies and donuts available for miles.
