Food and Agriculture Sphere

​Meeting Place Pastures - Marc Cessario

Picture
Meeting Place Pastures is located in Cornwall, Vermont - in the heart of Addison County. The farm contract grazes cattle, both dairy heifers and beef, for a variety of customers and markets. We also graze our sheep flock along with the cattle on our certified organic pastures. Our mission is to grown thriving relationships between the sun, grass and community. 
Like much of Addison County, our land is well suited for livestock. One of the things that can be relied upon in our region is the growing of high energy grass. The cool weather an precipitation levels work in our favor. With 1200 acres of land, we have the ability to harness an amazing amount of solar energy.

Bread and Butter Farm - Corrie Pierce

Our work is to re-imagine a collaborative working landscape that takes care of the soil, microorganisms, plants, animals, farmers, neighbors, and community that depend on this land. Through this work, we engage all members of our community in real and meaningful ways. We provide healthy, ecological food and products as well as joyful experiences that reaffirm our connection to each other and to our environment.
​
Core Principles

  • We work collaboratively with all the humans who are part of the farm team honoring each and every role and our past, current and future generations.
  • We honor the history of the land and surrounding landscape including the past, current and future owners and neighbors of our land.
  • We constantly ask questions of the land and ourselves as to what are good ways to work with the land and animals and people who are living here.
  • We make decisions about land and animal management that hold the highest level of respect and reverence for the soil, plants, and animals.
  • We are repairing and building a multi-generational community so that people at all stages of life have a place and a role on this land.

Juice Amour - Sheri Bannister 

Picture
Juice Amour is owned and operated by Sheri Bedard and her father David Bedard. It was the love and strong belief in the many health benefits of drinking fresh juice that started Juice Amour on it’s path to your backyard.

We wake up early to produce local, raw, organic juice and products on site every day.

Our juice cleanses are extremely popular and are a great way to introduce people to juicing while getting incredible benefits from weight loss to improved health. Read all about it here. We also know that the true benefit to juicing is accomplished when you do it regularly so we are constantly adding new juices and products to keep things new and fresh.

Getting as much produce from our local organic farmers is a core principle of the companies mission to make minimal impact on the earth while supporting our local farmers. We also reuse the glass jars our juices are delivered in. This eliminates the use of plastic and waste for our communities and planet.
