Get involved at Taylor Farm! We are a working farm in Londonderry, Vermont. In the winter we offer sleigh rides which keeps us very busy. I need help in our retail shop here on the farm. It is essential to keeping the farm alive. (look us up on Facebook or the web)

Additionally, there is the possibility of renting a room at my small sheep farm which is not too far away. Great people and always an adventure! (posted in HomeShares Vermont)

Housing Available!!
The studio apartment is available on our farm starting December 1st ! This apartment is
located over our shop looking out over farm fields. There is a functional kitchen and

FARM DESCRIPTION
Pigasus Meats is a pasture-based livestock farm located in South Hero, VT. Our on-
farm studio apartment will be open beginning December 2025. We have a flock of 75
ewes as well as a 25-sow farrow-to-finish operation. We provide feeder piglets to
commercial operations, as well as finishing market hogs for ourselves. All animals are
on pasture in the growing season and on deep-bedded pack in the winter months. We
sell our products in local and regional markets.  We strive to actively manage our
animals across our fields and forested land in a way that enhances and improves
biological diversity and functions as well to benefit the ecosystem. Landscape design
principles such as keyline design influence our pasture management practices and soil
health considerations. We aim to operate at a scale that provides a substantial amount
of food to our local food shed at an appropriate cost. A main tenet of our operation is to
provide the best life possible for the animals by allowing them to express their natural
pig and sheep behaviors.  We are constantly learning, making mistakes, and working to
improve our systems to meet the goals above.
