Vermont Way Foods is an initiative of The Vermont Food Hub Collaborative, which was formed to support Vermont farmers and promote food access in their communities. They aggregate, store, and distribute the bounty of Vermont so our farmers can farm and our makers can keep making great food. We are a collective of farmers, artisans and craftspeople. Cheesemakers, meatsmiths and sugarers. We’re not different because of some fancy high tech wizardry. We’re different because we do things the Vermont Way. We take things a little slower and lead with our values. We operate in community, not factories. We are building soil, not laboratories. We believe it is an act of courage to have integrity in a world that incentivizes Bigger, Quicker, Cheaper and Easier. We’re proud to raise our food with care, craft and empathy. We are farming with an older kind of ethic, one that is centered on strength of character, a generous spirit, and the courage to be uncompromising in our values. It requires a strong heart and a brave soul to do the right thing, instead of the easy one.
