Vermont Bean Crafters began in 2009, first in Rutland and now lives at the Mad River Food Hub in Waitsfield, VT. Vermont Bean Crafters is a team of artisans and friends who have a deep-set care and passion for quality food and the relationships, techniques, and equities antecedent to any such quality.

Their focus is to nourish the community with locally-grown organic plant-based foods. They are convinced that a Northeastern working landscape prioritizing nutrient-dense annual beans and grains row-cropped in rotations with vegetables and pasture–all hedged in by perennial staple foods such as nuts, fruits, berries and mushrooms–bolsters the integrity, beauty, and viability of their communities.
