A nice day in East Montpelier Vermont
History of this farm-
The original members of our family came to America on the Mayflower in 1620. The family were one of the 3 founding families in the town of East Montpelier moving from Peterboro, New Hampshire in 1788. The farm as it is known today was settled in 1810 and is 150 acres in size. To put that date into perspective, Thomas Jefferson was serving as our President during that period of time. In 2010 the farm became a bicentennial farm which has been in continuous family ownership for 200 years. For 9 generations the farm has been producing bountiful forage, grain, apple, maple and timber crops along with dairy, beef and sheep.

Montpelier Junction train station in Berlin Vermont
A railroad station has stood at this site since the mid-19th century.

That year, VCR built a branch line to downtown Montpelier, providing service to Vermont’s capital. The current station was built in 1934 by the Central Vermont Railway, VCR’s successor. It is likely the third station building on the site.
