Forest Echo Farm History
 Autumn view of Farmhouse field.
Forest Echo Farm was founded in 1969 by several families to provide a rural family retreat. The founding members shared a belief in the principles of Quakerism and used those principles to form the organizational structure and approach to welcoming others as visitors, and stewards.
Over the decades the organizational membership has grown to include other families and individuals committed to conserving this Vermont property. Many members are not Quaker, but the founding principles continue to guide us as we work towards our goals of preserving and maintaining the land, enjoying it, and sharing it. The Forest Echo Farm community is dedicated to preserving our land, maintaining a balance between our human presence and the natural character of the forest, lakes, and mountains. Through the Vermont Land Trust, we have set aside 80% of our land to ensure that it will never be developed. The Farm also belongs to the Green Mountain Bear Corridor and the Environmental Quality Incentives Program. We have cooperative relationships with Farm & Wilderness summer camps, the Nineveh Foundation, the Catamount Trail Association and the Vermont Cavers Association. We support WERS radio station, based at Emerson College. Like More Info? Check out cabin availability and contact us for more information about Forest Echo Farm.
