"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."

- Geoff Kleis of Familia Farm

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.
