More  than  sports played  outdoors “Just  what  is  an  outdoor  sport,  any-­ way?â€?  That  is  the  question  I  am  often  DVNHG ZKHQ SHRSOH GLVFRYHU WKDW , am  a  famous  outdoor  sports  colum-­ nist.  Which  is  to  say,  if  I  ever  become  a  famous  outdoor  sports  columnist,  , LPDJLQH VRPHERG\ PLJKW DVN PH that  question.   Indeed,  I  spent  a  great  deal  of  time  imagining  the  questions  my  devoted  fans  ZLOO RQH GD\ DVN me  if  I  ever  have  any  devoted  fans.  Do  I  use  steroids?  Have  I  ever  blood-­ doped?  How  long  before  I  retire? Therefore,  I  thought  it  would  be  prudent  to  prepare  a  few  answers.  Just  in  case. No,  I  don’t  use  steroids.  No,  I  have  never  blood-­doped.  And  I  have  no  plans  to  retire  as  long  as  I  can  con-­ tinue  to  compete  at  the  high  level  my  fans  have  become  accustomed  to.  The  other  question,  though,  is  a  little  harder.  Just  what  is  an  outdoor  sport,  anyway? That  question  was  prompted  by  a  recent  trip  to  Massachusetts,  where  I  went  to  watch  the  Middlebury  College  baseball  team  play  a  pair  of  double-­ headers  against  NESCAC  rivals  from  Maine.  Northern  New  England  col-­ leges  often  plan  early  season  games  in  GHHS VRXWK VWDWHV OLNH 0DVVDFKXVHWWV There,  March  temperatures  can  some-­ times  soar  all  the  way  up  into  the  low  (See  Dickerson,  Page  3B)

Vermont  withdraws  from  Dairies  of  Distinction  promotion  program By  ZACH  DESPART ADDISON  COUNTY  â€”  Vermont  for  many  years  has  promoted  the  healthy  image  of  its  dairy  farms  by  participating  in  the  regional  Dairies  of  Distinction  Program.  Agency  of  Agriculture,  Food  and  Marketing  RIÂż FLDOV KDYH VDLG WKDW DWWUDFWLYH GDLU LHV JLYH WKH FRQVXPHU JUHDWHU FRQÂż dence  in  the  wholesomeness  of  milk,  stimulate  milk  sales,  and  encourage  public  support  for  the  dairy  industry. But  early  this  year  state  Agency  of  Agriculture  sent  out  letters  to  dairy  IDUPHUV VD\LQJ WKDW LW ZDV ZLWKGUDZ ing  from  the  program. “After  many  years  of  discussion Â

Bothfeld,  who  is  deputy  secretary  for  dairy  policy,  added  that  the  agency  would  welcome  any  organization  that  is  interested  in  managing  Vermont’s  Dairies  of  Distinction  membership,  but  said  that  the  organizations  the Â

He  said  he  had  just  installed  the  sign  the  dairy  received  for  winning  last  year.  He  said  his  family  felt  honored  to  be  recognized  for  keep-­ ing  a  neat  farming  operation.  Just  weeks  after  the  2014  winners  were  DQQRXQFHG D Âż UH GHVWUR\HG D EDUQ DW the  farm. “We  were  just  able  to  get  one,  and  it’s  too  bad  the  program  is  going  to  be  done  away  with,â€?  Livingston  said,  adding  that  the  letter  went  as  far  as  to  tell  farmers  to  take  down  their  signs. But  Livingston  said  he’s  in  no  rush  to  remove  his  farm’s  sign. “There  is  some  pride  in  having  it,â€?  he  said.

Bothfeld  said  the  Agency  of  Agriculture  remains  committed  to  promoting  the  state’s  dairy  indus-­ try.  She  said  the  agency  participates  in  sponsorships  and  also  provides  dairy  products  at  various  events. She  added  that  the  agency  will  debut  a  â€œbreakfast  on  the  farmâ€?  series  this  summer. DAIRY  REMAINS  STRONG But  while  Vermont  may  no  longer  be  participating  in  the  Dairies  of  Distinction  program,  dairy  in  the  Green  Mountain  State  remains  strong. According  to  a  state  report  issued  in  December  2014,  dairy  accounts  for  2  percent  of  Vermont’s  gross Â

domestic  product,  which  topped  $11  billion  in  2012.  In  total,  Vermont’s  868  dairies  accounted  for  $540  million  in  economic  output  that  year. Milk  production  makes  up  about  80  percent  of  that  agricul-­ ture  production  in  the  state,  and  uses  that  same  proportion  of  all  the  available  farmland.  Vermont’s  dairies  employ  between  6,000  and  7,000  people,  and  pay  3  percent  of  salaries  paid  to  Vermonters,  accord-­ ing  to  the  report. Since  almost  90  percent  of  Vermont’s  dairy  products  are  sold  in  other  states  and  countries,  the  industry  brings  about  $1  billion  in  out-­of-­state  money  into  Vermont,  the  report  states.

We would like to take this time to thank all our patrons and to welcome new customers. Our staff at Commission Sales wants to recognize and celebrate the contribution of agriculture in our everyday lives.
