VPR Cafe: Going Back To The Farm

Sunday, September 8, 2013, 10:40a.m.  When people 'from away' think of Vermont, they're likely to picture a rustic red barn, cows grazing in a meadow, and sap buckets on maple trees.  But many visitors are going behind the scenes to see what actually happens on the farm and how Vermont farmers stay in business.  Vermont Farm Tours is a home grown business that enlighten visitors and locals alike.  Melissa Passanen, who writes for the Burlington Free Press Savorvore series, follows along on a Vermont Farm Tour. 

The VPR Cafe is produced in collaboration with The Burlington Free Press and is made possible by the J.K. Adams Company, in Dorset and at TheKitchenStoreOnline.com.

Franny was VPR's Director of Programming & Production.
Ric was a producer for Vermont Edition and host of the VPR Cafe.
