News From The Farm
Clear brook Farm is well under way this spring & garden plants have been on the top of everyone's mind as the weather has warmed. We still have lots of plants and you still have plenty of time to get your gardens in and growing. Our Produce Stand is open every day, with lots of our crops looking very good! This year Red Hen Bread is back to delivering down our way; hopefully Monday, Wednesday and Friday! Lots of VT cheeses on tap and Berle Farm yogurt... So many good items available!
CREW NEWS Wow, it is so hard to fathom we are almost into August! All season our crew has been giving 100+% this spring to get the greenhouses planted with amazing starts for your gardens. All the while, sneaking in farm field work such as pruning blueberries, planting strawberries for the 2022 season and getting a large onion crop in the ground between the rain. Now the high school and college kids have come in to fortify the ranks we are starting to make even more progress on the farm.
Our farm crew is really amazing this season!
STAND NEWS Our stand crew has been working extra hard keeping the plants and Farm Stand stocked and answering all your gardening questions! We owe them a huge amount of gratitude navigating the past 2 seasons of sales during the pandemic. They worked tirelessly to help keep everyone safe working a demanding job with lots of public contact. I am grateful to everyone on the Clear Brook Farm team for their hard work while serving local plants and food to our surrounding communities.
We hope to see you at the farm!
Have a wonderful summer!
Sincerely,
Andrew Knafel
Clear Brook Farm
Our Farm History
Clear Brook Farm was established in 1995. 2021 will be our 27th season growing bedding plants, certified organic vegetables and fruits. At the height of mid-season, we employ 25 folks either as full and or part time employees. About 5 people work close to year-round. The farm cultivates about 45 acres of land 25 of which are in veggies and small fruits every year. The rest is in cover crops and straw. The farm stand is our main outlet for selling our produce and plants.
The Farm Stand
Our farm is a one stop nursery and Farm Stand for all your garden plant needs in the spring and fresh produce needs for the summer and autumn. We grow ornamental bedding plants, organic vegetable starts, 25 acres of our own vegetables. We also grow an acre of organic strawberries and blueberries. Our Farm Stand offers not only our own produce, but also lots of other local meats, dairy, and baked goods, as well as other seasonal produce.
The Plant Stand
Clear Brook Farm has a wide selection of plants for your garden beds. We take pride in growing the highest quality plants and featuring special varieties unavailable elsewhere in southern Vermont. Our farm grows over 400 varieties of annuals and 200 varieties of perennials from seed. In addition, the farm offers the largest selection of organically grown vegetable and herb starts in the region, with over 200 different heirloom and hybrid (NO-GMOs) varieties to make your vegetable garden a success. Clear Brook Farm has many larger second year perennials, trees, and shrubs to complete your landscape. We have been growing bedding plants for the last 20 years as well. Not only do we grow the familiar annuals and perennials that most people are familiar with for their gardens, we also grow a number of more unusual annuals and perennials to keep your garden an area of interest. We also offer many shrubs and some trees as well... we love native plants and try to keep a nice selection of those in stock during the spring planting season.
