This review is based on my first visit for u-pick berries. I went for their red currants and blue…read moreberries. VT is the only place I found fresh currants so I was ecstatic to find a certified organic farm that grew them and were in season! +++ LRF is a family owned fabulous 200+ acres working farm in Monkton! Of that 90 acres is CERTIFIED ORGANIC, which has stringent requirements. I think it takes about 3 years and is an expensive process for farmers. They offer pick your own (PYO) berries (strawberries, currants, raspberries and blueberries), retail online and on-site for garlic, onions, tomatoes and other produce, pasture raised hen eggs and scratch made jams and CSA. They also sell hay to local farmers. Around here, customers, CSA included, come to farms to pick what they want. I called ahead and met Eugenia(sp?) upon arrival. She was friendly and showed me how and where to pick both red and black currants. Blue berries were not open to the public yet but she kindly let me pick a quart;-)). Their berries are high quality and after picking 3 quarts of berries, I decided I had an ample quantity....berry picking was addictive - LoL! + Price was reasonable. I paid $20 for 3 quarts of organic berries! TLR accepts cash, check and Venmo. + Parking if free ++ Eugenia was very kind and helpful! They are open May - October for PYO but CALL ahead and listen to their recording as their hours depend on weather changes and each crop ripeness. I left a voice message and Eugenia called me back after 90 minutes. Get some fresh air and enjoy getting farm fresh organic food!

I was fortunate enough to find this farm via the state's list of pick-your-own farms. They are a…read morefully organic farm, which is no small feat. Strawberries are the number one produce that is on the EWG's annual dirty dozen list, full of so many pesticides, that there's no way I want to buy non-organic strawberries (pesticides used for organic use are much safer). The farm has an excellent and safe procedures plan in place for COVID-19. You make a reservation in advance on the date you want, giving you two hours to pick as much as you need. They provide the cartons, which cannot be reused by anyone else due to safety measures. You will pay them via Venmo or credit card-no cash exchanges hands. So we decided on a sunny afternoon and donning our masks, headed out to the fields after we'd washed our hands in the outdoor sink, per their policy (excellent). One bonus to having a reservation, is fewer people picking at a time. We had several rows to ourselves and the owner Silas took the netting off of some patches for us and said we were welcome to move more, if we needed to. 70 minutes later, laden down with over 15 pounds of delicious strawberries of different varieties, paid the bill and headed home. These berries are amazing. I made: -strawberry lemon marmalade; -low sugar strawberry jam; -strawberry vinegar (and took the strawberries once the vinegar was fully infused and sweetened to make pie filling; -strawberry red wine jam and still have 4 cups to do with as I please! (still deciding) I'll definitely come here again; this is a wonderful farm in a gorgeous part of Vermont (couldn't all of VT though described as such)?

Nicolle came out to meet us and we talked for about an hour about her setup there on the farm. She is very knowledgable about her chickens, ducks, geese, quail, turkeys, the whole bit. While we would have liked to walk around her farm, she has biosecurity measures in place, so don't go thinking you are getting a tour ;-) It IS good thing for anyone wanting to buy her poultry however because she obviously cares about the health and well being of her birds. Having met her in person once again, I would definitely recommend buying from her with confidence.

We came in and bought a small chocolate milk (not the 1%) for $1! What great pricing. It was sweet (but not overly sweet) and the right consistency. Our 4 year old loved it and my husband and I did too. We quickly killed the chocolate milk before we even got back into our car. I'm not sure if they are offering any tours (as mentioned from a review a few years back) but would definitely love to get a glimpse of how they work if it is available for the future.

We had a Roulette Table, Craps Table, and Black Jack table. Craps is always a fan favorite, I couldn't even get a seat at Black Jack, and the Roulette wheel was a blast! Throughout the process, Ron's communication was impeccable, respectful, and so friendly. On the big day, I truly felt at ease and didn't have to worry about a thing; Ron and his team handled set up and break down seamlessly. The folks of Alpine Amusement Entertainment are thorough, kind, and tons of fun. I would recommend them to anyone! Hopefully I can use them again sometime, but I'm grateful for the lifelong memories and connections I've already made! Thank you so much, Alpine!

The signs led us to a patch of six or so sunflowers, all in various stages of bloom. Only $1 each, and we enjoyed such a delightful photo shoot. Super Covid friendly--you use the honor system and put a dollar in a wooden cash box for each flower you pluck. There was one pair of shears. Vermont is too cute!
