The Jenne Farm was down the street when I lived in Reading, Vermont. They made maple syrup and had cattle. It was a beautiful spread and popularly photographed. This is early spring on the rolling hills of Vermont. In Reading, Vermont right down the road from my first home in Felchville, Vermont

The farm is busy during sugaring season and sells maple syrup to the locals and visitors. How fun it was to visit as they were cooking down.

It has been said in many publications that this is the most photographed farm in North America. Once they received $300.00 from Budweiser for a photo shoot, how generous. It is gorgeous anytime of year and they have not charged for the artists to use the beautiful scene, but there is now a box at the top of the hill for donations.

The farm was built in 1813, in 2003 was still a 460 acre spread and
surviving by beef cattle and maple syrup. It has also served as a setting in the films Forrest Gump and Funny Farm. The farm photographs have been used for postcards, posters, calendars of all types over 60 years.
