We found excellent goat cheese options, drinks and artisan soaps for a gift. The products here are usually all good quality brands. Being a natural market, a lot of the offerings are free of pesticides, organic or all natural, therefore the prices are a bit high, definitely not a Shaw's nor Stop n Shop price point, but if you want some things that you can't find in a regular grocery store, check it out.... There's plenty of parking and the staff is very nice and friendly.

I came back into town for a few days and stopped by to get some food for my trip and noticed they had a cafe serving sammie's and smoothies and had to try one. They were all dedicated GF which was so amazing since I have celiac disease and it's really hard to find good freshly prepared food without risking cross contact & getting sick. I got the avocado toast sandwich and it was AMAZING! Also grabbed a matcha latte & pumpkin pie on my way out which both hit the spot. Hailey the owner (I hope i spelled that correctly) was the sweetest and I had a great conversation with her about nutrition. The co-op itself has so many gluten free, vegan, organic and locally sourced food options to buy in bulk or by the package. I love the environment they create here and the workers are always so friendly and helpful. They also have a section of pre-made food (most of which is vegan) and it all looks freshly made and delightful! The co-op is definitely one of the only places around here that i miss on the daily basis :,) Definitely recommend stopping by!

This is a family-run farm and the owners spent a lot of time teaching us about the sugaring process and how they run their farm. We were lucky to be visiting on a sugaring day and it was one of the best smells I've ever experienced. They also have a syrup tasting area and they darker grade syrups were so much better than anything I've had before. To top it off, the owners offered us a sample of local gelato made with their maple syrup and the sample ended up being a 1/2 cup of gelato, which was just so nice of them. This is a great place to visit and I would go back in a heartbeat!

I'm so glad we stopped by on our way to Cabot Creamery. This was probably the highlight of our Vermont adventure other than the foliage (Cabot and B&J's weren't so great, frankly). The owner was very personable and affable. There was an air of authenticity and pride to the whole operation. We walked out with an assortment of gifts, maple butter, maple sugar, candies, etc. Oh and syrup...oh the syrup...

After a long hike that left my legs completely shot, I found myself cruising the back roads of…read moreVermont when I spotted a small crowd gathered outside a charming little roadside stand. Curiosity won, and I pulled over--turns out, it wasn't your typical ice cream shop. Around here, they call it a creemee--a local twist I quickly picked up on as I listened to the locals eagerly waiting for their names to be called along with their favorite flavors. Naturally, I had to go with the maple creemee. I mean, when in Vermont, how can you not try something maple? One bite in, and I was sold. It's not quite like traditional soft-serve--the texture is smoother, silkier on the tongue, and the maple flavor was rich without being overly sweet. I also couldn't resist grabbing a maple soda and some maple candy while I was at it. (Hey, don't judge--did I mention how long that hike was?) I only wish I had the stomach to try more flavors; judging by the one I had, I can only imagine how delicious the rest must be. If you find yourself wandering the back roads of Vermont, keep your eyes peeled for a creemee stand--you're in for a real treat.

You get the sense that you are in a family store (even if it probably isn't) where everyone takes pride in what they sell. If you are near either one of their two locations, don't miss the opportunity to grab a cookie!

They have a lot of cheese from Quebec, France and the Netherlands. In fact they have a lot from all over Europe as well. You can ask for a sample before you buy the cheese. With the cost of some of these cheeses, that only makes sense. We picked up some Quebec cheese this trip but on past trips we bought Dutch cheese. The bakery side has good food as well. We have tried their breads and croissants and would definitely buy them again. There is a case full of pies, tartes,and cakes for sale and we are tempted to bring one home. They always have someone working who is fluent in English if your French is not good.
