Enjoy a meal with us this summer! Savor the growing season on your next visit: unwind at the Inn for breakfast or dinner, jump on the tractor shuttle and grab lunch at the Farm Cart (open daily beginning Saturday, June 15), or pick up items at our Farm Store & Welcome Center for a picnic.

Spotlighting Climate Change Education


Addressing a challenge as massive as climate change demands collaborative thinking and coordinated action. We organized the 2024 Northeast Climate Change Education Collaborative Summit to do just that.

Supporting Farmer-to-Farmer Learning


In partnership with NOFA-VT, we facilitated a peer-to-peer learning opportunity for farmers interested in connecting with schools and sharing their way of life with the next generation.

Why We Give


We considered leaving Vermont, but ultimately decided not to go—our love for Shelburne Farms and its mission was one of the main reasons. We never tire of walking the trails, the beauty, and the views. It's a salve to our spirits, and we are avid supporters.
