Vernon Family Farm is located on 33 conserved acres in Newfields, NH. These guys work hard to provide local communities with healthy, nutrient dense food. They sell a variety of chicken, mushrooms and vegetables at their farm store, and at farmer's markets and to local restaurants and grocers.

“Ultimately what we’re trying to do is build this sense of authenticity, uniqueness and organicness around your food and how you go shopping. We hope that when you come here, you see the trueness of your food, how it got to where it is, and you can feel connected to that.”
