Hi All,
I'm putting together a trip through Vermont (and upper New York state) in mid-May. I hope to visit a number of farms, artisanal cheese dairies, and organizations like Intervale involved with local food/sustainability issues. Would love to see a "living fence" or "hedgerow" in actual agricultural use. Visiting/getting pictures of a large, traditional, multi-functional (picturesque) barn would be a plus.
I will be traveling from Garrison NY up through Bennington to start a loop around the state, continuing Burlington-northern Vermont-Montpelier, returning at the end of the loop from White River Junction (near Woodstock) to Garrison.
If you have an interesting poultry/small farm operation, if you're doing interesting things with conversion of organic wastes, work guardian dogs (with livestock preferably), or other--surprise me!--and would be open to a visit, please be in touch privately at
harvey@themodernhomestead.us
I imagine some useful magazine writing will emerge from the trip. Anything of interest to the group, I'll end up sharing. Also, I'm gathering ideas for a second book.
Thanks for your consideration.
~Harvey
