Virtual Conversation with Alec Webb
We were delighted by the wonderful turnout for our "Conversation with Alec Webb" Zoom event held April 28, 2025. As President of Shelburne Farms, Alec highlighted our progress and shared the outlook for the summer season and beyond, and then answered your questions. If you weren't able to join us live, we invite you to watch the recording below.
Steward Reception 2024
We were pleased to see so many Shelburne Farms stewards at our annual Steward Reception at the Breeding Barn in September. Whether you were able to attend or not, we invite you to read the remarks, watch the video, and learn more about the Campaign for Shelburne Farms.
During the reception we announced that, thanks to our volunteer Campaign Committee and so many wonderfully generous leadership donors, we had just over $2M to raise by December 31, 2024 to meet our $50M Campaign goal and to meet a $5M challenge from the Robert W. Wilson Trust. We are so grateful for the wonderful and generous support that our Stewards provide each year and for everyone who has supported the Campaign for Shelburne Farms. Thank you!
Steward Reception 2023
We were excited to see so many Shelburne Farms stewards at our annual Steward Reception on June 8, 2023 at the Coach Barn. Whether you were able to attend or not, we invite you to read the remarks and learn more about the Coach Barn Rehabilitation Project that’s beginning late summer 2024. SAS Architects have created an impressive video walkthrough of what the Coach Barn will look like in the future. We are tremendously excited about the future programs this extraordinary building will make possible. We are so grateful for the wonderful and generous support that our Stewards provide each year!
