Description

Bill and Iola Kelley, farmers from Newport, Vt., who mentored the Frog Run Farm inhabitants. Bill offered for the Frog Run Farm to take over his vegetable stand in Derby. They declined because they wanted to farm their own land for their own use
many wanted to do it but there was not enough conensus to get the people to do it. Mary felt that was a mistake, and staffing the farm stand could have changed the whole nature of the farm.
