We aren't a typical farm. Instead of growing vegetables we're growing a community of people who care about the land and each other. Hike, play, and more. Visit the Retreat Farm Market for local artisan foods and Thirsty Goat bar for VT craft beverages. We are on a mission to connect people to the land and one another, and seeks to foster a just, healthy, and sustainable community in southern Vermont. Retreat Farm is a model, land-based, community-anchor institution located on 500 acres of Abenaki homelands at the edge of downtown Brattleboro, Vermont. From our start in 2015, we have sought to restore the barns, forests, fields, and waters of this historic property and to establish an essential community place and platform for a range of community-advancing initiatives.
