Jenne Farm, Private farm in Reading, Vermont, United States
The farm sits at 1,500 feet elevation among the Green Mountains, featuring a traditional red barn and fenced pastures with rolling hills.
The property gained recognition in 1955 when a South Woodstock photography school discovered its potential as a photographic subject for Life magazine.
The farm maintains traditional New England agricultural practices, producing maple syrup while serving as a backdrop for numerous films and advertisements.
Visitors can park along the road near the farm and purchase maple syrup from a collection box, but must remain on public areas.
The location appears in the films Forrest Gump and Funny Farm, although the owners received minimal compensation for these commercial productions.
