The mission of Chris’ Wild Gift Project – Vermont Farm Tours – is to connect its guests with the stories, people and places that give Vermont its eco-gourmet reputation. Vermont Farm Tours offers guided half day and day trips or custom tours of a week’s length. The tours immerse guests in the connection between taste, place, and producer.

Picture yourself on the half-day Vermont Maple Tour –“Learn about the magic and finesse required to turn maple sap into syrup with sugarers known for traditional techniques and environmental stewardship. In season, walk alongside a horse-drawn sled and help collect sap.” Or the all day Vermont Farm Tour - “Meet dynamic farmers and enjoy an array of cheese, wine, heirloom veggies, herbs, and flowers. At each farm expect a warm welcome as the farmers share their story and guide you through a tasting of in-season delights.” Other full day tours include Vermont Vineyards, Brewin’ up Vermont and Vermont Artisan Cheeses.

Whether you’re already visiting Vermont and want to add a unique day trip to your itinerary or looking for an unforgettable destination experience of a week’s length, help Vermont Farm Tours continue to be a driver in the sustainable agriculture movement.

Chris is also an avid alpine skier, nordic skier, fledgling backcountry skier, and frequents the Green Mountain club's lodges and lean-tos. Let him take you to his favorite spots!
