Sustainable Farming

For Cabot farmers, sustainability is a way of life. For generations, our farmers have found better ways to power their farms and care for the land and water.

Cow Power

Working with Green Mountain Power (GMP), Blue Spruce Farm in Bridport, VT, now in operation for more than a half century, served as the pilot dairy farm for GMP’s “Cow Power” program.

By way of bio-digester, this process turns cow waste into energy, allowing the farm to provide 300+ local Vermont families with electricity.

Real Farm Power

Cows in our Cooperative provide cream & electricity for Cabot Butter. Both the cream and the electricity needed to churn Cabot Butter at our West Springfield facility come from the cows at the Barstow Longview Farm.
