Item Description
A Family Membership, which includes two adults and the children (or grandchildren) in the household, to Shelburne Farms.
Shelburne Farms is a membership-supported, nonprofit environmental education center and National Historic Landmark on the shores of Lake Champlain in Shelburne, Vermont. Our mission is to cultivate a conservation ethic. Schoolchildren, adults, educators and families come here to learn, while casual visitors may enjoy the walking trails, children’s farmyard, inn, restaurant, property tours and special events. The farm serves as an educational resource by practicing rural land use that is environmentally, economically and culturally sustainable.
Shelburne Farms was created in 1886 by William Seward and Lila Vanderbilt Webb as a model agricultural estate. In 1972, it was founded as an educational nonprofit. Our nearly 400 acres of sustainably managed woodlands received Green Certification from the Forest Stewardship Council in 1998. Our grass-based dairy supports a herd of 125 purebred, registered Brown Swiss cows. Their milk is transformed into our award-winning farmhouse cheddar cheese right here on the property.
Membership benefits Include:
- Free admission to tours of the property, the hiking trails, the children's farmyard, the annual Harvest Festival, and to the annual "Envisioned in a Pastoral Setting" art exhibition
- 10% discount on Farm Store and catalog purchases
- Calendar of events, newsletter, annual report and catalog
- Discounts on selected children's, family, and adult education programs
