In reply to Susie. Susie -- I love the name of the One-Eared Cow Glass. Although I feel bad for it. One ear must be a tough life. I would love to give you a personal tour at Simon Pearce. Think about it. :)

Okay, I’m going to try this one more time. I don’t know if my internet is the problem (which I suspect it is), but my comment wouldn’t post the first time. =/
We have a glassblowing company here in Columbia called “One Eared Cow Glass.” Yes, a weird name, but a fun place to go. When Julia was about 6, we went with some friends to watch the two resident glassblowers in action. It was truly fascinating. While One Eared Cow does not have quite the view outside their building that Simon Pearce does, it was fun to relive a neat memory. I would love to visit Simon Pearce if and when we get to New England.

We have a glassblowing company in Columbia called One-Eared Cow Glass…yes, a weird name, but a fascinating place to go. When Julia was about 6, we went with some friends to watch a glassblowing exhibition and found it to be quite a fun “field trip.” It is absolutely amazing what one can do with heat and glass. They don’t have quite the view outside their shop like you do at Simon Pearce, but your article brought back some fun memories with friends and a time when my daughter was “little.” =)

I love how much you have explored in and about VT Allie! I have vague recollections of places and things my mom has seen and/or told me about and then, you capture the story in word and picture, and I find myself even more intrigued. I am making a To Do list for our family trip next summer. Thank you!!

Allie, excellent job describing Simon Pearce. I love the photos too! You’ve got this down! Quechee is a beautiful, quaint little town. It’s dear to my heart because I got married there in a beautiful little church right across the street from Simon Pearce. Did you notice it? Then we had our reception half a mile away at the Quechee Inn Marshland Farms. Gorgeous location! More to checkout on the way to Simon a Pearce next time. Oh I forgot to mention My dad gives me a Simon Pearce piece for every occasion. I must have 30-40 pieces and love every one of them! Nothing compares to Simon Pearce hand blown glass. Love it!

Jack and I joined Jenny, Joby, and the boys on a trip to Burlington, VT last spring. We traveled around the area and saw many breathtaking vistas. We even visited the Quechee Gorge and the Vermont Cheddar Cheese factory. Somehow we missed this beautiful Simon Pearce Glass Mill. Maybe it was God who directed us elsewhere, for we did have the toddlers with us. This will make for a lovely return visit. Thanks for the information on another wonderful find in New England.
