Ackermann Farm

The world is catching up to the family farm. In Vermont, the small family farm is being phased out and replaced by large economically viable farms. The children of farmers are moving away and deciding not to carry on the farming way of life, resulting in the farms closing. The Ackermann farm in Cabot, Vermont is trying to hold onto its way of life, adding on a third generation of farmer.
