Hello,
Please pass along this farming opportunity to those who may be interested.
The Smokey House Center is seeking an individual or family with farming
experience and an agriculture business plan to lease and operate the
former Harrington Farm.
The farm is 240 acres of mostly prime and statewide important farmland,
together with a five-bedroom farmhouse, dairy barn, and outbuildings.
The farm has historically been used for dairying, with approximately 80
milk cows and 50 heifers last on the property in 2007.
As I understand it, the farmland can be certified organic in/after July
2009. For more details, see

Questions? Please contact Lynn Bondurant, Executive Director of Smokey
House Center, at (802) 293-5121.
Best, Deb
