See below for more information on lodging.About the RetreatJoin Milk Street’s Director of Education Rosemary Gill and Director of Culinary Production Wes Martin for a hands-on cooking intensive in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont—a rural, remote and beautiful slice of New England. You’ll spend two days visiting farms, cooking with Wes and Rosie and enjoying lavish meals made with the best seasonal produce and local products. There will also be time to enjoy a wood-fired sauna, explore the local community, relax with a book or hit the world famous mountain biking trails of Burke, Vermont, our home base.The retreat starts on Monday evening with a Welcome Dinner prepared by Wes and Rosie. You’ll get to know your fellow students and learn about the days ahead. Tuesday morning, we’ll visit Chandler Pond Farm, an integrated beef, flower and berry farm to learn about regenerative farming, grass-fed beef and the life and economics of small-scale agriculture. With steaks, flowers and stories in hand, we’ll return to The Farmhouse—our cooking classroom in Burke—to cook in outdoor and indoor kitchens at The Village Inn, all under Rosie’s and Wes’s expert guidance. Expect comparative tastings, skill challenges and a celebratory meal. On Wednesday, we’ll start at Firefly Farm, a small family farm committed to working with nature to grow produce, raise animals and tap maple trees. There we'll take an in-depth tour, try some hands-on farming and eat lunch of wood-fired pizzas cooked on site. We’ll then return to The Village Inn and get cooking once more, this time with the freshest spring produce from Firefly Farm. Again, we’ll use live fire and indoor kitchens to produce our farewell dinner feast.We offer only a very small handful of these retreats per year. This one is limited to just 10 students. Get your tickets now.  If you are a local NEK resident or an employee of the Kingdom East School District, please get in touch for special rates.About Firefly Farm: Firefly Farm is a family owned and operated diversified farm, located in the hills above Burke Hollow, VT. Sustainability, resilience, and community are at the center of how we farm. We draw from both traditional practices and modern science in order to grow and raise food in a way that honors and supports the animals, plants, and land on which we work, as well as the people we feed. We pride ourselves in caring for our community while at the same time caring for the earth that feeds us all. We offer a whole diet range of nutritious foods, grown and raised in a system that strives to work within the natural processes of our piece of land.About Chandler Pond Farm: The Chandler Pond Farm has a rich agricultural history, and has been home to great land stewards over the years. The Dills are thrilled to care for, and call this beautiful place home, and grow a family that will someday be able to carry on the agricultural tradition. Farming holds a special and critical role in the Dill family’s lives: the desire to promote stewardship of the limited land base available today, provide honest, quality food for the community, and maintain a lifestyle of solid work ethic, appreciation and understanding of the limited resources available in a world where much of the population is removed from its food system.LOCATION: The retreat is centered around Burke, Vermont.
