I am Sara, and I am a certified Justice of the Peace in the state of Vermont and an ordained nondenominational interfaith minister. I can officiate ceremonies in any state. It is with great joy I help create just the right ceremony for each couple that perfectly reflects their love for one another, their personal values, and spiritual perspective. Couples can write their vows, choose readings I can recommend, and include any other elements they desire.

I have had the honor of officiating ceremonies here on Sandiwood Farms beautiful hilltop estate, as well as venues throughout Vermont.

With unobstructed views of Mount Mansfield, Mt. Elmore, and the beautiful Worcester Range of northern Vermont, our weddings and elopements at Sandiwood Farm are memorable experiences that will never be forgotten, by couples or by guests.

I would be honored to serve as your officiant.

A Family Farm in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom

Maple sugaring is a labor of love. Approximately forty gallons of pure sap is boiled down to make each gallon of maple syrup. During the early spring (when the sap is running and sweetest), the smells of bubbling, boiling sap bring joy as we stoke the fire and gather with friends and family. Although it is most commonly enjoyed for breakfast, maple syrup is not just for pancakes. Try our sweet treat in your morning coffee, with marinades, dressings, baked goods, and more. To make sure you get the most of our maple syrup, we wanted to compile some of our favorite recipes we have gathered locally and online. Please enjoy and let us know your favorite!

In 1988 Bob and Sara Schlosser were married in an unproductive field that is now Sandiwood Farm. With mountain views, breathtaking sunsets and scenic moonrises, they knew this was the place they would start their home, farm and family. They began building — tilling and cover cropping, planting, and maple sugaring. The farm is named after their two children, Sandi and Kyle Woodrow.
