Jenne Farm
Jenne Farm is a photographer's Mecca. Jenne Farm is in central Vermont, about a 15 minutes drive south of Woodstock on Route 106. If you are driving south on 106, go through South Woodstock, then follow the road up Reading Hill. After it crests and you start to go down, slow down and look for a small sign on the right hand sideAccording to Floyd Jenne "Junior", one of the current owners, the photography craze began about 50 years ago when a photography school in South Woodstock discovered its unique setting. Once the photographic word was out, so to speak, it was a natural progression to the big time with Life magazine photo contests, pictures on the cover of Yankee magazine and Vermont Life. Corporate America even got into the act with full color spreads on the front pages of their annual reports. Eventually, Jenne hit the big time, appearing in a Budweiser commercial, and in two movies; Forrest Gump and Funny Farm.
