Our NOFA-VT pizza social at Foote Brook Farm is just around the corner!
Third-generation farmers Tony and Joie Lehouillier own and operate Foote Brook Farm, a 100-acre diversified, certified organic produce farm in Johnson. They grow over 145 varieties of organic vegetables, as well as 25 acres of sod grass near the convergence of the Lamoille River and Foote Brook.
Their farm experienced significant flooding in July of '23, resulting in a 75% crop loss. Luckily, their farmstand remained high and dry and, despite all that they were juggling, the farmers quickly became a local food hub for Johnson residents, whose only nearby grocery store was destroyed in the flood.
With their well-established farmstand and the ability to accept EBT cards, Foote Brook Farm was ready to step up and feed the community during a very challenging time. This is what community resilience looks like and is one of many reasons that we're excited about this opportunity to celebrate Foote Brook Farm!
