It’s no secret that we love local farms, and we are so lucky to have many to choose from in the North Country of NH and the NEK of Vermont. And even luckier for us, we’ve spoken to many of our well known and established area farms about their decades long histories and how the Littleton Food Co-op has grown alongside them. However, it’s rare that we get to hear the origin story of a farm while it’s still originating; what it’s like before the land has bloomed to life and the farm stand has a mile long line. Or in this case, before the farm stand has even been built. On this episode of That’s Rad, host Anastasia takes a trip out to Tellman Hill Farm to meet with its owners, Emily Meacham and Doug Morin. The husband-wife duo share their plans to take their plot of land in Whitefield, NH from empty space and baby trees in the ground to the area’s next premiere apple orchard. Emily and Doug’s story is a testament to how farming is a labor of love, and how taking a risk might just bring you to the life (and farm) of your dreams. This episode is great for folks interested in farming, cute dog lovers, and those interested in hearing Anastasia make a poorly thought out analogy to the 2011 film “We Bought a Zoo.”

The Littleton Food Co-op is proud to carry and support over 200 local vendors. Local products can be found all throughout the store: in the organic produce, the fresh meat and seafood, the daily prepared hot meals, the bulk foods, the expansive grocery selection, the craft beer and wine, and more. We believe everyone should have access to high quality, locally produced food, which is why everyone is welcome in our store – no membership required to shop! Come in and see the local love for yourself; we’re just off Exit 41 in Littleton. Or, check us out online at littletoncoop.com or on your favorite social media platforms.
