EmuEmu ChickWe've ventured outside our Farmhouse and into the Vermont Mountain Meadows to find this addition to Vermont Only and Mile Square Farm: Emu Products! We've teamed-up with Mill River Emus in Mount Holly, Vermont to sell these big bird products.

Curious Emu "Emus aren't particularly cute. In fact, they are odd-looking - with Mohawk-style tufts of hair, stubby wings, and whiplike necks. So why have thousands of farmers across the country begun raising these spindly-legged, flightless creatures, investing a great deal of time and money in their care?

Because they're banking on the hardy birds - cousin to the ostrich and native to Australia - turning into the next cash cow for the agriculture industry."

Emu are curious and we figured you would be too. So, we've assembled some background information about these interesting big birds and their products -- the latest craze to hit the agricultural and consumer markets.
