Robin McDermott The Annual Forum at Shelburne Farms today was fabulous! Thanks to all of the farmers and chefs who provided the fabulous foods for the evening. Particularly exciting was the charcuterie from Verde and the Blue Bird Tavern! Wouldn't it be great to be able to buy Vermont-made sopressata made with local meats?? Thanks also to Shelburne Farms - what a spectacular venue.
