A history of hospitality
As early as the 1930s our great-grandparents, Earl and Mary Wilson, opened their home to those looking for a temporary escape from the hustle of life in the city. In exchange for free room and board, these folks would come help out around what was then a working farm.
Our grandfather, Bryce, grew up in the Farmhouse and attended Craftsbury Academy. After graduating from college, he moved to New Jersey with our grandmother, Audrey, and began his career as a guidance counselor. Each summer, they would pack up the car with their four children, including our mother Lisa, and return to the familiar warmth of the Craftsbury Farmhouse. Long summers were spent exploring the wonders of Vermont’s Green Mountains and fishing in the Whetstone Brook.
