Join us for VLT’s annual summer farm tour series! Throughout the growing season, we’ll host monthly farm tours to showcase conservation-minded producers from around the state. Each tour will highlight the incredible work of one farming team and give the public a chance to learn about how they steward the land while producing some of the finest food and farm products around.  

Baird Farm is a certified organic maple operation in Chittenden, producing small-batch syrup and maple products from more than 14,000 tapped trees. The 585-acre farm has been in the Baird family for four generations and is now led by Bonnie and Bob Baird, with Jenna Baird and Jacob Powsner managing the maple enterprise. Their sugarbush is guided by a forest management plan that supports long-term tree health and biodiversity. Using reverse osmosis to reduce fuel use and organic practices throughout production, they pair careful stewardship with education, tours, and a growing direct-to-consumer market.
