While taking in a leisurely drive through the scenic Vermont countryside, be sure to stop by Taylor Farm. A dairy dating back to the early 1800s, you can walk through the farm, learning about the cheesemaking process while trying one-of-a-kind cheeses, produced only feet from where you stand. If visiting during the colder months, make time for a magical horse-drawn sleigh ride through the farm.
