A 270-acre, family-owned farm in Rupert, Vermont, where animals, people, and nature thrive together.

Sterling Hollow Farm is a one-of-a-kind property nestled in the hills of southern Vermont. With wide-open pastures, renovated cattle/horse barns, and blooming natural ponds, we’ve created a space that honors the land and the animals who live here.

Owned and operated by Michele and Jim O’Brien, the farm spans over 270 acres and includes equine facilities, heritage breed cattle, goats, ducks, chickens, a vineyard-in-progress, and more. Every square foot is part of our ongoing effort to build something restorative, sustainable, beautiful, and deeply personal.
