Clay Hill Corners is a small-market garden and blueberry farm on seven acres, owned by Carol Stedman and Marty Banak. We provide fresh, local foods to our neighbors and the communities of Hartland, Quechee, Windsor and Hartford.  Our passion is to grow year-round in Vermont, and we extend our short growing season with an insulated solar greenhouse and a hoophouse.  Blueberries and 'Spicy Greens' salad mix are our farm specialties. We bake "Green Thumb" quiches from our produce, local, cheese and milk. We also bake Hartland Granola in six varieties including gluten-free and Paleo-friendly versions.

What's New

Summer at the Farm

We've been  spending a lot of time in the kitchen this week making the usual quiche, hummus, and granola; but we've also dabbled with pickles and various jams including Blueberry & Blackberry, Raspberry, and even Tomato! 

All the plants are doing very well in this season of plenty and we find ourselves constantly picking the beans, tomatoes, greens, zucchini, cucumbers, and of course blueberries!

Inch by inch, row by row, we're turning the beds in the greenhouse to spring greens such as spinach, cress, winter lettuces, mustards, arugula and mache.

Our quiches are available at Singleton's Market in Quechee, the Upper Valley Coop in White River Junction,  Dan and Whits and Killdeer Farm Stand in Norwich.  Some recent flavors include Broccoli, Roasted Late Summer Vegetable, Delicata Squash and Swiss Chard, Leek and Zucchini Feta, Tomato Basil, and Butternut Squash.

Our own Hartland Granola can now be found at Singleton's and  Dan and Whit's. Pick some up when you pick up a quiche! We have six kinds: Almond Coconut, Maple Walnut, Maple Walnut Raisin, Coconut Cashew, Ginger Date Coconut, and Grain-Free Granola.

The ducks! Our Indian Runner ducks are now 17 weeks old. Most ducks start laying between 18-20 weeks. Indian Runner duck eggs are particularly wonderful as they are yolk-rich and delicious.

 Clay Hill Corners Farm Stand

The Farm Stand is now closed for the season.  Thanks so much for your support! Come see us at the Winter Markets.
