The Turner barn project was successfully completed in May 2007.  Thanks to everyone in the Mad River Valley community and beyond who helped assure that this farm will be here for generations to come!

Calf Replacement Fund

The insurance adjuster told the Turners that their insurance will cover the replacement of the Heifers, but not their unborn calves.  Because the dairy is not yet certified organic, if they do receive compensation for the heifers, it will be for the price of conventional animals and not certified organic animals. 

The United Church of Christ of Waitsfield and the Warren United Church collected donations for Calf replacement.  Thank you everyone who made donations!  This effort raised over $6000 to help the Turners rebuild their herd.

Stay tuned for updates on the Calf Replacement Fund.
