Four Corners Farm Tour


Saturday October 18th, 1-4PM

Travel to this diversified family farm in South Newbury, VT, with Co-op Sustainability Coordinator, Emily Neuman, and Upper Valley Land Trust President, Jeanie McIntyre.

Four Corners Farm produces a wide variety of vegetables along with an assortment of berries. Their specialties are strawberries (which they have sold to the co-op for many years) and delicious greenhouse tomatoes. They also have a herd of Jersey milk cows.

Join us and meet the Grays as they lead a tour of their operation and explain how the Upper Valley Land Trust helped them to conserve the land on which they farm.
