Retired Charlotte Farmer Finds Joy In Woodwork, Sugaring And Handing Out Roses




Vermont Edition show

Summary: Charlotte's Yvan Plouffe is a retired dairy farmer who sugars, tends to his plum and peach trees, and raises 10,000 roses every year to hand out all around town. He also does woodwork, metalwork and pottery, the latter of which he took up just ten years ago at age 70. And he lives in a house he built himself, along with most of the furniture inside of it.
