Whitcomb Farm
Farm description/project location:
The Whitcomb Farm has a 250 cow milking herd in Williston, Vermont, located on the banks of Winooski River a tributary of Lake Champlain. Much of the farm land in the Champlain Valley is saturated with phosphorus with the application of manure. The current demonstration is a joint effort of the Vermont NRCS, the Lake Champlain Basin Program, the Vermont Agency of Agriculture, EPA, Vermont Agency of Natural Resources, and the Poultney/Mettowee Conservation District. The proposed project requires a strategic site selection.

Nutrient Reduction Process:
  • Biological treatment towers contain patented Looped Cord Media. The system digests solids and then treats the effluent, continuously.
  • Biofilter units remove N,P,& K from the liquid exiting the digester, which can be spray irrigated.
  • Existing digester generates methane gas for use on the farm either as heat or electricity.
