Open Farm Week at Smokey House Center

Past event
Aug 14, 2022, 10 AM to 2 PM

Join Andrea Myklebust of Mountain Heart School of Craft this Sunday to kick off Open Farm Week at Smokey House Center! We will be harvesting flax and picking blueberries. The flax harvested will be used in linen textile processing. Refreshments and snacks to energize visitors for the harvest will be provided, and there will be a Smokey House farm tour. Come for as much of the day as you are able!

Note: Cell service and GPS can be spotty in this region. Have your GPS running prior to or secure directions from Route 7 before your departure. Look for the Smokey House sign hanging from the wishing well with a black tree for parking.

Smokey House Center is a land based non-profit committed to agriculture and learning. They lease land to for profit farmers who collectively run the farm stand at 426 Danby Mountain Road. In addition to farm leases, Smokey House Center operates a Community Farm Project that grows food with and for the community for distribution throughout Rutland and Bennington Counties. Each year the Community Farm Project engages local area youth, school groups, and individuals to grow 10,000 pounds of vegetables.
