Elmer Jenne at the Jenne Farm in Vermont

A chat with an old Vermonter at the iconic Jenne Farm, one of the most photographed places in the world

This should be added to the Library of Congress. We need to secure videos like this for research and enjoyment in the future. Incredible video, Thank you

[@epiphany987]

thank you..

[@joannb4182]

Elmer- Thank you so much for sharing your story. You're an honest and open minded man. No wonder you've been blessed. You ROCK!

[@mikevogel6745]

Elmer is a true classic icon of the hard working American of years past. Can't wait to see this spot in a week or so. We will definitely add to the fund bucket, and hoping others have the common decency to not abuse the privilege to enjoy and capture images there.

Talking about taxes in Vermont never gets old. Always new ones to talk about!

I like seeing the Vermont accent at different points.

[@epiphany987]

Its close to being gone. I'm seven generations but I've lost the old accent. Thanks for watching

[@knightwing51]

this is what a honest hard working man looks like.

[@TheBcrug]

Saw him one time in the town clerk's office paying his taxes,1s,5s,10s,few 20s. She was a bit upset with him.

Money was money what was their problem. This video is needed, but I'm a little irritated. Some of the things that the interview was said were asked and the way he might have done it. We'd love having talks and coffee with these folks won't come our way again. :(

Elmer!! Man should've been president

[@JeffFoliage]

Was this recorded in 1992? The year Floyd died? I've gone up and met Mike Jenne. The kids run the farm as a co-op and seem to be doing ok but could use more folks paying to take pictures (money box at the big tree in the video) or of course they still produce maple syrup.

[@epiphany987]

Yes Jeff it was. Sorry I'm late responding. I like your channel

[@JeffFoliage]

@@epiphany987 well thanks for the reply. I try to get people to respect the property but I doubt the ones that read my blog are the ones who go there and have a wedding on the hill with out paying the Jenne family (Mike said this really happened)

Bernie Sticker on the barn

[@perrybelcourt5441]

Nice to know that

[@fredbrennion1572]

Sure sounds familiar. I grew up in Vermont (Barre, Marshfield, Cabot) and New Hampshire (Wolfeboro). Elmer seems to spend a lot of time staring at the ground. New England farmers sure are a humble and droll lot.

[@rarepoop7231]

What is that suppose to mean?

[@joshuarollins6385]

It’s too bad these good ol Vermont Farmers are being pushed out or dying off. These are the best damn people in the world.

[@epiphany987]

truth, Thanks

Sounds like my Grandpa who lived in Rygate.

[@epiphany987]

Very cool

[@poooperdoodle]

Reminds me of my grandpa too. He lived in reading off of rt 106

[@edfisher2752]

Vermont now is in the process of elimination by taxation of the local farmers like this ! Shameful. !

[@geoffoutdoors]

Vermontors need to take back their state and make it great again! For the farmer!

[@nightcrawler481al]

Elmer brought logs up to my dad’s sawmill on North Road Barnard. Stopped at his house at the farm one time and met Floid and his wife.

[@nelsonlachappellejr9377]

What town in Vermont is this video taken in?
