Wondering what to do with the grapes once they’ve grown? Sharen Conner and Martha Esersky Lorden are here to answer your questions!

In 2020\, Sharen turned her focus to verjus and produced some for the farm stand and again the next year. In 2022\, she obtained a food producers license and began to sell to restaurants and retail outlets. Sharen is committed to caring for the environment through employing organic methods and providing experiential education to her “farm stay” guests and wwoofers (wwoof.org) who come to help and learn these aspects of agriculture firsthand. \nMartha Esersky Lorden is a food writer\, culinary historian\, and cookbook reviewer.

SUMMARY:Woodstock VT Film Series: Whitman Brook
DESCRIPTION:Whitman Brook: An Apple Orchard and the Nature of Time\nDirected by Ben Silberfarb. 68 minutes. Not rated.\nQ&A with filmmaker Ben Silberfarb and Whitman Brook Orchard’s Terry Dorman following the Saturday screening \nShowings take place at 3:00PM in the Billings Farm & Museum Visitor Center Theater. Tickets are $15 person/$12 Billings Farm member. \nPurchase Tickets \nWhen Terry Dorman moved to Quechee\, Vermont\, in 1980\, his plan didn’t include rescuing an abandoned\, 100-year-old apple orchard. His mind was on the farm he and his wife\, Sara\, were planning to build\, an idea rooted in the loss of his family’s land in Massachusetts decades earlier. But there it was—rows of gnarled\, drooping trees in danger of being reclaimed by the forested hillside. So\, he began to experiment with restoration pruning and grafting and soon he was in the orchard in every season\, in every kind of weather. \nWhitman Brook is the story of an orchard\, and also its stewards—Terry and the others who work among the trees. It’s the story of love\, of loss\, and of rejuvenation through the act of caring for a place that will continue long into the future. And it’s a call to pay attention—to the natural world\, to the passing of time\, and to each other. \nThis film is about life’s pace. It’s about our place in time\, environmental stewardship\, and it’s a love story.” ~ Ben Silberfarb\, Director \n

SUMMARY:Woodstock VT Film Series: Dusty and Stones
DESCRIPTION:Dusty & Stones\n2022. Directed by Jesse Rudoy. 83 minutes. Not rated.\nQ&A with film editor Loulwa Khoury following the Sunday screening \nPurchase Tickets \nShowings take place at 3:00PM in the Billings Farm & Museum Visitor Center Theater. Tickets are $15 person/$12 Billings Farm member. \nThe screening of Dusty & Stones is part of the Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival 2023 Vermont Fall Tour. Eden Ciders\, Shelburne Vineyard\, and Iapetus Wines are sponsoring the Fall Tour\, and will present tastings in the Billings Farm Visitor Center from 2-4pm on both Nov 18 and 19. Guests can also purchase a glass or bottle of wine or cider. \nABOUT THE FILM \nDusty & Stones is a continent-crossing hero’s journey story told through country music. The documentary intimately chronicles the remarkable ride of cousins Gazi “Dusty” Simelane and Linda “Stones” Msibi\, a determined duo of struggling country singers from the tiny African Kingdom of Eswatini (known as Swaziland at the time of filming) who long for their big break. \nWhen they are unexpectedly invited to record their songs in Nashville and to compete in a Texas battle of the bands\, Dusty and Stones embark on their long-awaited first pilgrimage to the ancestral heart of country music. \nOver a momentous ten-day road trip through the American South\, Dusty and Stones bring their music to life in a top Nashville recording studio\, explore the storied locales of their favorite country songs\, and excitedly engage with the culture they’ve long felt part of from afar. \nBut this sense of kinship is abruptly thrown into question when Dusty and Stones arrive in the small town of Jefferson\, Texas to compete in the battle of the bands. There\, the hostile leader of the local backing band threatens to derail the cousins’ debut American performance.
