our small story
We are small...like really small. Our little town of Goshen, Vermont has a population of 168 people. What’s not small is our love for the natural beauty of Vermont and its joyfully weird, hard working people. We are designers, farmers and parents of two little ones dedicated to creating products that share the magic of our little home with the whole world.
Ten years ago we quit our day jobs to build an organic maple syrup and honey farm, pursuing our dream of running a business together, raising our kids close to the land and making the two greatest tasting products on earth (maple + honey obviously). Our vision has grown to include candles and soaps and apparel but we still ship every order ourselves out of our small, mountain-side sugarhouse. It's all about keeping it small:)

the sugarhouse
Part sugarhouse, part office, part order fulfillment center, this building is the heart of our work. We built it ourselves, with help from our friends and family and it serves as the headquarters for everything Republic of Vermont.
sourcing
We started Republic of Vermont as a small maple and honey farm. As we've grown, we now have the privilege of buying these agricultural products from our friends and neighbor's farms, helping to support the rural economy in our little neck of the woods.
