Meet The Family
Brad Charbonneau is the hardworking force behind both the family farm and his self-started Tree Service business. Born and raised in Franklin County, Vermont, Brad has always believed in doing things the right way—with care, integrity, and a strong work ethic. He married his high school sweetheart, Jessie, in 2006, and together they've built a full and rewarding life with their two teenagers, Ben and Emily. Brad wears many hats—tree service expert, beef farmer, full-time grain hauler, and devoted husband and father. Whether he's carefully felling a tree, grinding stumps, hauling brush, or tending to the herd, Brad always puts safety, precision, and customer satisfaction first. He takes great pride in seeing how far the farm has come, slowly transforming it into the vibrant, welcoming property it is today. Known for his kindness and willingness to help anyone in need, Brad is constantly on the go—but always makes time for his family, friends, and a good snowmobile ride in the winter.

Meet Jessie Charbonneau — the heart of the Charbonneau family farm. A proud lifelong resident of Franklin County, Vermont, Jessie is a devoted wife, mom, and community member who keeps life running with warmth and a smile. She married her high school sweetheart, Brad, in 2006, and together they’ve built a beautiful life raising their two teenagers, Ben and Emily, along with a whole crew of animals, including chickens, goats, and GMO-free Hereford beef cows. When she’s not helping Brad on a tree service call or handling barn chores, you’ll find her running a cozy in-home daycare, baking something delicious, or tending to her flower beds. Jessie is known for her kindness, her love of animals, and her passion for creating a welcoming home where family and friends always feel like they belong. And yes—she has a super awesome brother, too!

Benjamin Charbonneau, better known as Ben, is a hard-working and good-natured Junior at Enosburg Falls High School who truly enjoys the farming lifestyle. When he’s not helping out with the family business or working on a neighboring farm, you’ll probably find him outdoors riding his four-wheeler—especially the CAN-AM 850 Renegade he proudly saved up to buy himself.
Ben is known for his kindness, great sense of humor, and love of joking around with his family and friends. He’s always willing to lend a hand, whether it’s tackling barn chores, running equipment, or helping out in the fields. In the winter, snowmobiling is one of his favorite pastimes, and no matter the season, Ben embraces the rewarding life that comes with being part of a farming family.

Emily Charbonneau is a kind and thoughtful young woman starting her freshman year at Enosburg Falls High School. Quiet and down-to-earth, she has a gentle way about her and a big heart - especially when it comes to animals. Emily is a hard worker who babysits for local families to earn money, and she’s always ready to pitch in around the farm when needed.
She has a special love for cats, enjoys relaxing with a good puzzle, and in the winter, you might find her skiing on the mountain with her friends, a skill she first learned while attending Sheldon School. Whether she’s caring for animals, spending time with loved ones, or enjoying simple hobbies, Emily brings warmth and kindness to everything she does.
