TICKETS ON SALE NOW! CLICK TO PURCHASE.

Our farm sustained very minimal damage during the July flooding but so many friends, neighbors, fellow farmers and food businesses did not fair so well, which is why we are turning this event into a flood relief benefit so we can give what we can back to those who need it most right now.

Make your way to East Hardwick where we will show you around the farm where you’ll see grass-fed beef grazing on pasture, heritage breed pigs romping about, and our growing flock of sheep. Farmer Ben Nottermann will talk about the true meaning of regenerative agriculture and how our animals help sequester carbon and rebuild soil health. Then we will share an incredible meal of whole hog BBQ and potluck side dishes with live music from local farmers. Let’s dance into the evening together while helping our fellow Vermonters.

For this event, we welcome you to:

  • Bring a potluck dish (please put your name and phone number on the bottom of the bowl in case you forget to take it home with you)
  • BYOD – Bring your own drinks
  • Bring chairs and picnic blankets
  • Bring a cooler for your drinks and to store purchased meat items in
  • Feel free to bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the Hardwick Area Food Pantry

At this event, we will have grassfed beef, pasture raised pork and grassfed lamb available for sale!

Mooove the Cows & Picnic in the Field

When: Saturday, August 12, 2023 from 12:00-1:00 p.m.

CLICK TO GET YOUR TICKETS NOW! 100% of Ticket Sales benefit The Civic Standard’s flood relief efforts.

Bring your picnic basket and blanket along to join us at Snug Valley Farm as we move grass-fed cattle. Field TBD – meet us at the farm at 11:30 a.m. and we will caravan to wherever the cows will be grazing. Ideally, we will show off our GPS virtual fencing collars if conditions cooperate. Ben will explain the art of grazing animals and carbon sequestration, and then we can picnic in the field after. All proceeds will benefit The Civic Standard and Hardwick Area Food Pantry.

Summer at Snug Valley Farm

Happy Summer here on the farm. We are welcoming the warmer weather. In between haying, Ben and our farm help Loren have been busy moving herds of beef every day to fresh pastures, transplanting pumpkins into the ground, moving our growing flock of sheep, and tending to our pigs each morning. It feels good to be getting well into our grazing season. We welcome you to place your orders online and then we will contact you to schedule a pick-up at the farm.
