Farming For Future Generations
Best cooked by braising or stewing, our lamb shanks are delicious. Oven roasting with rosemary and garlic is our favorite way to enjoy these truly special cuts. Elizabeth's Croatian family also slow roasts full lambs. The key is to season well, use lots of butter, and a touch of garlic. While our lamb is very tender and moist, an extra trick is to spritz with beer for added moisture and sweetness.

Being close neighbors, we've enjoyed Fairmont's meats for years. We had a delicious pot roast of their boneless chuck for our New Year's dinner (2024!) just a couple of days ago. Their animals are raised humanely and their family-run farm is productive and beautiful. (Have a look at their charming web pages.) They've expanded their market to include local dairy products and a nice array of specialty items like maple syrup and jams produced by neighboring farms. It's a great feeling to know where your food comes from. Their customer service is superb. Very highly recommended.

Fairmont Farm has been my go-to Farm here in Montpelier. Super tasty pork, top notch lamb, and the color of the fat of the beef says it all!
I'm also a fan of using the underutilized and overlooked parts, so don't be scared to come check it out.
Bonnie, Richard and family have been nothing but awesome and supportive

Very appreciative of the Fairmont Farm market. The quality of the meats has been outstanding, and visiting the farm for pickup is a great alternative to conventional shopping trips. Fun way to shop local.
