“Dear Mr. Orton, My emotions ran high, and my childhood memories of many of your wonderful products overwhelmed me! My brothers and I ate the delicious Habitant Pea Soup when we would visit my grandparents in Massachusetts. Thank you so very much for keeping these products around for a sentimental person such as myself!” — Linda Rademacher, Budd Lake, NJ

“I grew up with this soup; it's almost like my grandmother's. I don't have her recipe; it died with her. I have been having my sister-in-law send me this soup from Vermont because I can't get it in Virginia. Even she has had a hard time trying to find it. So happy that I can now order it from The Vermont Country Store.” — Sandra, Suffolk, VA
