Join the UVM Extension Dairy Team for the Future-Ready Dairy Farm Tour Series as we visit innovative dairy farms across Vermont that are improving efficiency, profitability, and resilience through technology, diversification, and herd and crop management strategies. These informal farm tours and conversations offer a chance to hear directly from producers about what is working on their farms, lessons learned along the way, and what they are most excited about for the future of their businesses and the dairy industry.

Diversifying Dairy: Grazing, Agritourism, and Value-Added Innovation
Stony Pond Farm, 336 Emch Rd, Enosburg Falls, VT 05450
Thursday, July 9, 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Learn about innovative practices at Stony Pond Farm, stewarded by the Webb family. Melanie and Tyler Webb manage a Jersey herd and produce small-batch cheese and grass-fed beef. Learn about seasonal calving, grazing, and youngstock management strategies, compost bedded pack management, and infrastructure for product distribution. Additionally, to reach new markets, Tyler and Melanie added two farm stays on their property.
