“We don’t use pesticides on the farm so we can walk through the fields and hear the buzzing of bees,” said co-owner Diane Cordeau during a 20-minute farm tour.

A buffet style table sat at the back of a large tented seating area. It was decked out with large bowls of vegetarian dishes to go with the roasted pork. A generous helping of strawberry shortcake and vegan peanut butter cup, created by Veggie Love Food Truck, finished off the meal.
