Bread and Butter Farm, Shelburne
Friday cookout and band



Bread & Butter Farm was started in October 2009. Corie and Adam purchased the farm from the Leduc Family who had put the farm into a conservation easement through the Vermont Land Trust. Corie and Adam’s proposal to purchase the farm was chosen by the Land Trust in August of 2009 and they closed on the farm in September 2009.  The Leduc Family owned the farm for over 100 years prior to Corie and Adam. Until 2004, Maurice Leduc operated a dairy business at the farm. He had taken over the business from his father. Maurice and his 4 siblings all still live on Cheesefactory Road and provide Corie and Adam with constant support and guidance as they have taken over operations at the farm.

The Hotel Chelsea, also known as the Chelsea Hotel, or simply the Chelsea, is a historic New York City hotel and landmark, known primarily for its history of notable residents.
Located at 222 West 23rd Street, between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, in the Manhattan neighborhood of Chelsea, the 250-unit hotel has been the home of numerous writers, musicians, artists, and actors, including Bob Dylan, Virgil Thomson, Charles Bukowski, Janis Joplin, Leonard Cohen, Patti Smith, Iggy Pop, Jobriath, and Larry Rivers.
Though the Hotel Chelsea no longer accepts new long-term residencies, the building is still home to many residents who lived there before the change of policy.

Arthur C. Clarke wrote 2001: A Space Odyssey while staying at the Chelsea, and poets Allen Ginsberg, and Gregory Corso chose it as a place for philosophical and intellectual exchange.
It is also known as the place where the writer Dylan Thomas was staying when he died of pneumonia on November 9, 1953, and where Nancy Spungen, girlfriend of Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols, was found stabbed to death on October 12, 1978.

The building has been a designated New York City landmark since 1966, and on the National Register of Historic Places since 1977.
