🌾 From Pines to Produce!

A familiar Bennington landmark has a new chapter. Once known as Bennington Pines, the property is now home to Bennington Farms, a local mercantile and farmer’s market owned by Jeff and Jen Vollmer.

From fresh produce and groceries to local meats, baked goods, plants, gifts and more, the Vollmers are bringing “a little bit of everything” to the community. 🛍️
