Fresh off the Farm - Misty Knoll

Misty Knoll Farm produces the most chicken and turkey in Vermont by a long shot. Owners Rob Litch and John Palmer have been in the poultry game since 1991 and credit much of their success to their product’s popularity with chefs.

Rob and John are able to offer the quality, quantity and consistency needed to supply hundreds of Vermont restaurants with the most America's most consumed meat--chicken, but they might not have gotten there if Rob hadn’t been taken into the kitchen at the Basin Harbor Club years ago. Former Basin Harbor Executive Chef David Merrill was the first to teach Rob about plate costs and his need for a consistent product. Understanding how Chef David was storing, prepping, cooking, plating and pricing his chicken helped Rob guide his business to supply that level of product.
