Vintage Champlain Shore Grain Co. artwork featuring a Northern Cardinal and grain sack, “Sold by Green Mountain Farmers’ Depot, Montpelier, Vt.” Available as 4×6 and 8×12 photo prints and a 20×30 cm metal tin sign.
This Champlain Shore Grain Co. design celebrates Vermont farm country along the lake. A bright Northern Cardinal rests on a winter branch beside a burlap sack labeled Nature’s Mix Since 1892. The text below reads:
Sold by Green Mountain Farmers’ Depot, Montpelier, Vt.
A classic barn, fence line, and soft clouds sit in the background over a light blanket of snow. The entire piece is rendered in warm browns and reds with gently distressed edges so it looks like a well-loved grain-and-seed poster from a small-town depot.
Champlain Shore Grain Co. is a completely fictional brand, created to capture the look of early 1900s bird and songbird grain advertising while avoiding any real company logos. It pairs perfectly with your Cedar Point, Penobscot River, Copper Country, and Whistlewing designs to build a regional bird-seed wall.
Great for:
Farmhouse kitchens and dining rooms
Coffee bars, pantries, and mudrooms
Cabins, lake houses, and bird-watching corners
Anyone with ties to Montpelier, Lake Champlain, or Vermont’s Green Mountains
