I love shopping at Free Verse and meeting friends for tea and yummy comestibles!
I have cherished Free Verse Farm for many years, as they offer my favorite teas, which are truly exceptional. I appreciate that they are a small family farm located in beautiful rural Vermont. Each month, I make the drive to stock up on multiple cans of tea, goat milk caramels, coffee, and often a delightful little trinket. Recently, however, I found myself With just half a tin of tea left, I turned to their website for an order. To my disappointment, I discovered that the price of the 1oz teas has nearly doubled. I had been paying just under $9.00 for quite some time, so the jump to almost $16.00 was quite shocking. While I understand that they have recently achieved organic certification and that prices can rise, this steep increase feels excessive. It's disheartening to think that I can no longer afford my favorite tea, leading me to place an order with Harney & Sons Tea Co., which isn't a local option. I truly value supporting local businesses over larger corporations, and it's a shame to lose this connection. I sincerely wish the best for Free Verse Farm, but I am saddened to find myself stepping away as a long-time customer. I hope they can find a way to adjust their prices, as it would be wonderful to continue enjoying their products.
Rebuilding the food system, from the farm up

It's a charming place; they grow organic herbs on their farm! How cool is that!! We have tried the “take it easy tea, " which is delicious and works like a charm. They have herbs and other products for any issue, so it's worth checking out! Good thing they have a website to order from!
Free Verse Farm Shop is a hidden treasure with an impressive selection of artisanal products. The friendly staff and charming atmosphere make it a must-visit for anyone seeking unique, locally sourced goods. What's more, just down the road, they offer one of the most amazing campsites I've ever experienced, making it the perfect place to stock up on delicious local foods for your camping trip.
