The Old North End Farmers’ Market runs outside from June through October and features seasonal meats, produce, and handmade crafts from local producers. Once a month, stop by our activity table for fun, hands-on activities for all ages.

Green Mountain Bee Farm is family-owned and operated by Michael and Nicole Willard in Fairfax, VT. Michael is a Certified Beekeeper and is the former President of the Vermont Beekeeper’s Association. In this workshop, we will tour the apiary and learn from an observation hive.

Join us for our first farm tour of the season. We will visit Butterworks Farm, a farm where “a cow can be a cow.” We’ll learn about rotational grazing, soil health, and grass-fed agriculture. After touring the land and solar barn, we’ll gather for a barbecue and make frozen yogurt.
