WELCOME TO SALAD PARADISE

About
I'm Stoni, and I'm your salad farmer. I became a farmer because I love eating, feeding people, and basking in the glory of our Earth. New Tradition Farm is an expression of that love. It’s also a way to turn dreams for a better world into flavorful action right here in Huntington, VT!

Farm Shares
The heart of the farm is our Salad Farm Share Program, where our beloved members prepay for a season’s worth of fresh, delicious salad vegetables of their choosing at our booths at the Burlington and Richmond Farmers Markets. You can also opt to be part of our Farmer’s Choice Share, where we give you a weekly supply of our best crops.
OUR MISSION
To provide you with the most delicious, top-notch salads and vegetables while nurturing the health of the soil, our community, and the ecosystems we are part of.
Our Practices
No pesticides, no GMOs, no diesel-guzzling tractor. Yes to hand-scale farming that produces abundant, scrumptious, life-giving food. Yes to sequestering carbon and working in harmony with soil life by tilling minimally—if at all. Yes to cover crops, compost, seed saving, and planting habitat for our threatened pollinators and native insects. Yes to minimal packaging and an electric delivery vehicle! While we are not yet certified, we strictly follow organic practices as well as strive beyond them!
“We are in the redemption business: healing the land, healing the food, healing the economy, and healing the culture.”
