Do you have a dream of starting a farm? Join us this summer for Farm Dreams to explore your farm vision, connect with other aspiring farmers, learn about resources for beginning farmers in Vermont, and grow your understanding of farm business management and land access. This two-part series will cover the basics and provide structured activities for you to develop your vision. You will leave with an action plan to support you in making your farm dream a reality.
Part one will take place virtually, via Zoom, and focus on holistic goal setting and skills assessment. Part two will take place in person at Union Brook Farm in Northfield where we will tour the farm, hear how the farm owners started their farm, and build out personal action plans. Participants are strongly encouraged to join for both parts, but for accessibility there is an option to join for the virtual part only.
