SPOTLIGHT<br />
FARM LIVING // Never mind who moved your<br />
cheese. Instead, learn to make your own in<br />
a workshop at Shelburne Farms, a Vermont<br />
environmental education center known for its<br />
glorious cheddar. The former country estate<br />
of Gilded Age fi nancier William Seward and<br />
his wife, Lila Vanderbilt Webb, the dazzling<br />
spread on the shore of Lake Champlain (with<br />
landscape design by Frederick Law Olmsted)<br />
also boasts a well-appointed inn, a restaurant<br />
and a working farm. Youngsters especially seem<br />
to enjoy frolicking with the free-range chickens.<br />
