It's Monday folks and I am so looking forward to a week of thankfulness, family visits, and some delicious Thanksgiving dining!
Today I am so very thankful for the two-in-a-row visits with Grandpa Jay and the Lovely Sue. As if seeing them for a long weekend in Montreal wasn't enough we get to have them here in Vermont for a Village stay!

Before moving here I knew that I wanted to have an active part in the local community and explore everything that these great people have to offer. The main form of this being food of course. I am in awe by the farms that surround and overjoyed at the prospects of eating Farm to Table. When my familial guests inquired about raw milk I knew just the place to take them...
200 Leduc Farm Drive Shelburne, VT 05482 |
Upon arrival we had a peak around to see what was available...
3 seed bread baked fresh
A welcome board....
and Ta-Da...
Vermont's finest raw produced milk. Problem was, the container seemed slightly large for the short weekend stay. While in debate on whether or not to purchase such an amount a kind farm hand appeared and offered a taste...
We asked several times if he was sure that he should open this for just a small taste and he assured us that it was (another reason I heart this place). He poured a glass for the long distance travelers who have been waiting a long time for this. He poured himself a taste as well and they cheers(ed). Matt and I refrained due to our attempting vegan ways.... I must say though, if I were to drink milk it would absolutely, hands down, be from this place!
After one sip they say...
We'll take it!
I think they liked it.
Then they paid on the honor system which I love.
Then we headed to the Farmhouse for a magnificent lunch. Matt and I shared the squash and apple sandwich and a to die for salad...
And that was just the beginning...
