Company description

Located in Castleton and Poultney, Vermont, Dutchess Farm is a small family farm that has been in business since 1986. We grow a variety of produce for our CSA members, local wholesale accounts, custom growing, and farmer’s markets. We are known for our garlic, greens, herbs, peppers, tomatoes, and more. We use cover crops extensively and grow with organic inputs.

Our farm consists of about 10 acres. In warmer weather, 5 acres are in production while the other 5 are cover cropped. We also utilize 9 greenhouses, most of which are overflowing with heat loving crops like tomatoes, sweet peppers, zukes & cukes. In the winter, the greenhouses are home to greens such as spinach, kale, chard, and leafy brassicas.

Dutchess Farm works closely with local food banks & donates food to those in need.
