Nicole & Jeremiah Vernon Talk Time, Family and Vulnerability

 

“I have a specific memory of the first time we ever did sheep, I was so mad at my parents, we were going to kill the sheep. And then fast forward like an hour into it. And I came running into the house holding a sheep tongue and being like, Mom, check this sheep tongue out.”—Jeremiah Vernon

Farmers/Owners of Vernon Family Farm

Vernon Family Farm (VFF) is a 1st generation, pastured livestock farm on the Seacoast of New Hampshire. Established in 2014, VFF works hard to provide wholesome, delicious food to their community through their farm store and their agritourism events. Located on 33 conserved acres in Newfields, NH, along the Piscassic River and route 87, the farm raises nonGMO pastured chicken, lamb, pork, grass-fed beef, vegetables and cut flowers. Their products are sold throughout NH and at the farm store, located on-site, open daily, year round 9am-6pm. The farm continually strives to create opportunities to gather the community so that people can know their farmer and have an appreciation for where their food comes from while eating finger-licking food prepared by their sister company, Vernon Kitchen, a catering company, listening to live music, and more! Check out their website to learn more and follow them on FaceBook and Instagram for updates and news about the farm.
