Dutchess Farm
In 1976, Dutchess Farm owner Stephen Chamberlain took a semester off from college to work at a local farm in Virginia. In a moment of rest, listening to bluegrass music, he realized that small farm growing was what he wanted to do with the rest of his life.
Fast forward to today, and Dutchess Farm has been growing fresh, local produce for over thirty-five years. Leveraging sustainable growing methods, Dutchess Farm offers exactly what you seek from a local Vermont family farm: wholesomeness, warmth, welcome, ethical and sustainable growing methods, and knowledge – and of course, delicious, nutrient-dense, delectable offerings throughout the year.

Dutchess Mystery Pepper Single Varietal Hot Sauce
Sometimes a new pepper shows up when you least expect it.
At Dutchess Farm, a single pepper plant popped up in the middle of a row of Golden Ghost peppers that looked a little… different. The color was the same, but the size and shape were different, clearly something unusual growing among the ghosts. Nobody had planted it on purpose.
Of course we had to make hot sauce with it!
The Mystery Pepper turned out to taste a lot like a Golden Ghost, with that familiar flowery ghost pepper heat, but with an extra layer of juicy sweetness that makes the flavor pop.
So we turned it into a single varietal hot sauce to let that surprise pepper shine on its own.
It’s bright, fruity, and seriously hot, with just enough sweetness to keep you coming back for another bite. Perfect anywhere you want bold heat and real pepper flavor. Particularly with soup, shrimp and turkey sandwiches.
Heat: 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 (5/6)
Ingredients: White vinegar, Dutchess Farm Mystery chili peppers, salt. * All produce is grown on a small farm within 200 miles of our Vermont kitchen

Geoff KleisFamilia Farm - West Pawlet, Vermont
"Butterfly Bakery gives us a market we don’t have to invent or manage every single day. If I get a flat tire, I’m not missing my one chance to sell that week. Our days are more predictable and our mission is clearer. We can focus on growing 15 crops really well instead of juggling 30 just to stay competitive at the farmers’ market. I can focus on farming instead of marketing."
