Our History

1905

Our family started farming and sugaring in Glover, Vermont 112 years ago. The 6th generation of Young View Farms is currently operating a dairy and maple sugaring business. We have all learned from our elders and tried to improve and grow as the generations move on.

1930's

The Farm has grown into a productive dairy, maple, and chicken farm. Eggs harvested from the chickens were delivered on a wagon pulled by horses to the railway in Barton about five miles away every day.
