Farm Credit Fellow Andrew Whitney of Hardwick, VT visited the St. Albans office the week of August 21st. Andrew is entering his senior year at UVM as part of the 2+2 program. He spent the summer working at Jasper Hill Farm in Greensboro, VT. Andrew hopes to own a dairy farm after graduation and realizes the challenges of getting started. While visiting the St. Albans office he had the opportunity to visit a modern dairy farm with robotic milkers. He also visited maple operations, a winery in Grand Isle, and a large farmstand/greenhouse operation in Chittenden county. He sat in on office visits with customers and helped key loan application information to be analyzed.
