Yes. I am looking to rent a 1 acre plot on farm land near Burlington, White River Junction and through 89 to burlington, or Brattleboro. I am planning on growing herbs in a holistic manner, incorporating covercrops, crop rotation, cow manure and more. If the land has ties to Native American settlements it would be greatly appreciated!
I have previously had success working with a ORGANIC dairy farmer, who can provide services such as molboard plowing, disc harrowing, manure spreading and cultivating (the rake attachment on tractors) in exchange for either farm work or money. it would be an experience that can greatly help us both!!!!
