Preston–Lafreniere Farm

The Preston–Lafreniere Farm, located in Bolton, Vermont, is a historic site established in the early 19th century and operated by five generations of the Preston family until the 1990s. This picturesque farm spans 60 acres along the Winooski River and features a vernacular wood frame house and several barns, with construction dating back to the early 1800s. The property is notable for its well-preserved structures and its connection to the local history, having been listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. Visitors can appreciate the scenic rural landscape, which includes open fields and nearby Camel's Hump State Park, where much of the surrounding upland has been conserved. The farm's legacy reflects the agricultural heritage of the region and the family's commitment to preservation.
