We are a non-profit that was founded to promote perennial tree-based, community-focused agriculture in the Randolph VT area. Our work is framed by an understanding that our local food systems are inadequate to provide even a small percentage of our food needs, and we are dangerously dependent for our sustenance on complex and distant forces that are beyond our control. We live in an area where agriculture once was thriving, and we are working to reestablish a more localized and sustainable food system, our main contribution being the promotion, physical propagation and planting of heirloom and modern varieties of fruit and nut-bearing trees and shrubs. We also conduct educational workshops related to sustainable agriculture, like scything, fruit tree pruning, grafting, and mushroom log inoculations.
