Golf in Bakersfeild

Bakersfield is a small Franklin County hill town in the agricultural uplands between the Lamoille River valley and the Canadian border. The surrounding dairy farms and maple groves define a landscape that has changed little over the past century, and the community retains the character of a working Vermont agricultural town. Bakersfield is within the catchment area of Johnson and Hyde Park for commercial services, and its residents are part of the broader Franklin County agricultural economy that makes this corner of Vermont one of the most productive dairy regions in the Northeast. The town sits within easy reach of Johnson and Hardwick for commercial needs, and the tight-knit farming community has maintained a cooperative self-reliance characteristic of Vermont's northern agricultural towns.
