Shelburne vets raise funds for memorial By Gail Callahan
gail4kidsire@burlingtontelecom.net SHELBURNE Ñ Shelburne veterans are seeking help with the construction of a memorial planned for the Parade ground in town. The memorial, a granite brick facade numbering about 1,000 bricks, will measure about 100 feet horizontally, is slated to begin construction next April, according to Shelburne resident and Vietnam Vet Mike Lynch. Calling the memorial Ò not very big,Ó Lynch added the structure, which includes a five-point star, will be surrounded by landscaping and will honor people with a connection to Shelburne, who served in all branches of the U.S. military, from all conflicts. It will be located at the eastern end of the Town Green, near the site of ShelburneÕ s FarmerÕ s Market., near Falls and Church roads. The communityÕ s role in building the memorial is underscored by encouraging people to buy bricks in honor or in memory of a local veteran. Each one costs $100, Lynch said. The group started to sell bricks during the most recent Fourth of July weekend. Lynch said about 20 to 30 bricks have been sold, as of mid-July. Lynch said the cost of the structure will run about $100,000, and the group spearheading the project raised about $65,000, so far. Ò WeÕ d like to dedicate the Memorial next Memorial Day,Ó said Lynch, who has lived in town since 1975. Ò WeÕ ve been at this for two years. ThereÕ s a group of nine of us, and weÕ re veterans, representing all the wars working on this.Ó He pointed out that the project got jump started when Shelburne Town Clerk Colleen Haag, whose husband is a veteran, started to talk with the group, and eventually the committee proposed the idea of a memorial. The concept for a memorial is an idea whose time has come, Lynch and fellow Shelburne veteran Sam Feitelberg pointed out. Ò There are quite a few towns have veteransÕ memorials,Ó said Feitelberg, who settled in Shelburne in 1970. A veteran of the Korean War, Feitelberg worked as a physical therapist at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington,
D.C. from 1954-56. He said service people returning from the war appeared eager to discuss their experiences.Ó They wanted to tell their stories everyday,Ó he said.Ó it makes you want to do more.Ó Calling the planned memorial a “place of reflection,” Feitelberg noted he, along with other local veterans, are eager to learn the identity of a person they term Ò their youngest donor.Ó Recently, a pre-teen male approached the group as it publically talked about the project. After he listened to plans for the memo-
rial, he reached into his pocket, pulling out a bunch of change, maybe totaling around a dollar and donated the money to the fundraising effort. Ò WeÕ d like to know who this person is,Ó said Feitelberg, who expressed thanks, for the youthÕ s actions.Ó We want this memorial to be part of the community,Ó he said. Ò We want everyone to be able to enjoy it.Ó

Death in the afternoon i i
August 16, 2014
am a sucker for offbeat celebrity stories. While i donÕ t revel in the hard luck stories of the rich and famous, i am fascinated by human drama; letÕ s face it, when it comes to unusual celebrity deaths, such drama tends to come wrapped in odd, even distressing packages. We Americans tend to put our celebrities in a special compartment. Why? They are, after all, just people. Sure they possess money, recognition, or a beach house cantilevered over Malibu beach, but we are always caught by surprise when we learn that they tend to end up like the rest of usÑ dead. in the pages of the Eagle, and its sister publication North Country Living magazine, i recently told the sad story of 1940s actress Veronica Lake who died in Vermont in 1973. Lake was cursed with schizophrenia; pills and alcohol only hastened her death in obscurity. ThereÕ s a similar celebrity story which haunts meÑ the death of model and actress Yvette Vickers. This tragic story, barely reported when it occurred three years ago, bears repeating. The sad demise of Vickers reminds me that while we can be surrounded by many friends in life, we always die alone. Vickers’ story could be slugged ghoulishly, “The Strange Case of the Mummified Playmate.” A former Playboy Playmate magazine model, Vickers was born in 1928 in Kansas City. While she certainly wasn’t a household name like pinup model Anna Nicole Smith (who’s last cult film by the way, titled Ò illegal AliensÓ , was shot in Rutland in 2006), the sexy Vickers managed to carve out a burgeoning career in movies during the 1950s. (Some Hollywood observers went so far as to say that she had promise in the dramatic arts and could have been a major player if she had better management.) Now if you pay attention to the screen, you’ll see Vickers in an odd variety of ‘50s films such as “Attack of the Giant Leeches”, the classic Billy Wilder film “Sunset Boulevard,” and cult favorite, Ò Attack of the 50 Foot WomanÓ . Following several of these big screen appearances, B-movie maven Russ Meyer snapped Vickers jaybird for PlayboyÕ s now famous (and collectible) July 1959 issue; that sealed her imageÑ and her fate. But as the late 1950s slipped into the decade of the Ô 60s, VickersÕ beauty faded rapidly and she dropped out of the public eye. She dated the late actor Jim Hutton and had short flings with actors Lee Marvin, and even Cary grant. From her rise to pinup stardom and until her final curtain call, Vickers lived in a beautiful 1920sstyle mansion in Los AngelesÕ s Benedict Canyon. She occupied the Spanish Mission-style house from the 1950s until her bizarre death. it was a residence right out of Billy WilderÕ s Ò Sunset BoulevardÓ in which she appeared. Then, on the afternoon of May 2, 2011, VickersÕ long-time friend Susan SavageÑ who hadnÕ t heard from the 82-year-old Vickers in a long timeÑ decided to drop by. Outside the Vickers villa, an overflowing mailbox and high weeds poking through cracks in the driveway bitumen alerted Savage that something was awry. Savage jimmied a back door and entered the mansion. She immediately went upstairs to the master bedroom. There she found an electric space heater blasting out dry heat into the already hot interior of the southern California house. On the floor, next to a wireless telephone handset, was Vickers’ mummified remains. It was a wonder that the thermostatically controlled heater hadn’t started a fire after running for just over a year. (imagine the whopping electric bill which was eventually paid by the Vickers estate?) LAPD detectives ruled VickersÕ death by natural causes. She apparently had a heart condition, suffered a massive heart attack, and died alone, there, on the bedroom floor. The telephone handset on the floor next to Vickers’ remains suggests that she probably tried to dial 911 for help. After a short investigation, the L.A. Coroner’s Office reported that the former pinup’s body had remained undisturbed for more than a year. No foul play involved. Ò So sad,Ó a friend in Orwell remarked to me in a Facebook post chatting about VickersÕ death, Ò that anyone should die all alone and forgotten. To think that it took over a year for a Ô friendÕ to come-a-knocking.Ó While beauty may be fleeting, mummies can last for centuries—but in the strange case of Yvette Vickers, it was all vanity in the end. Her mummified corpse was cremated at an undisclosed locale. End of a life. End of a story. Louis Varricchio

Candidate Column
am seeking the Vermont House of Representatives seat being vacated by Paul Ralston. Since stepping down as President of the Better Middlebury Partnership, i have been looking for a new way to be involved in community service. i believe this opportunity is the right fit at the right time. I understand and respect the values this community views as important: the goal of making Middlebury a better place to live, work, play and do business, and that goal is really our stateÕ s goal. Vermont is a unique state whose reputation for quality of life is recognized everywhere. The challenge is to make that quality of life sustainable through smart economic growth. The Vermont Working Lands Enterprise initiative that seeks to enhance opportunities in the agricultural and forestry sectors, entrepreneur programs for emerging technologies, encouragement of a telecommuter community and support of existing business expansion are all incredibly important avenues of growth. The population of Vermont is growing older outpacing most other states. We have to find a way to keep young people in our state, to make it possible for them to raise families here, and that Photo by Mark Bouvier means jobs, affordable housing and good schools. it needs to be accomplished with fiscal responsibility and an efficient planned approach. That takes cooperation, compromise and commitment to getting things done. idealism tempered with realism and pragmatism - in other words - vision, integrity, hard work and common sense, working values that i would bring to the position. i ask for your support. if elected, i will look at any assignment i am given and ask Ò what are we doing, why are we doing it, can we afford it and will we be better off. I would like to be part of finding solutions not just for you and me, but for our children and grandchildren, and future generations.
Donna Donahue (D) Addison-1 District Addison Candidate for State House of Representatives
Background
i worked for 22 years in what was a true start-up company that began with three people (i among the three) and learned firsthand the challenges of starting a business, finding a brand and niche market, evolving and expanding responsibly to grow. it was a great experience in a very successful company. Since 2005 i have worked for National Bank of Middlebury in their Business Development department with responsibilities for expanding and managing the bankÕ s website content and on project management teams to implement and market new products as well as conducting sales and service training. it is a privilege to be part of a business that is committed to its community, its customers and its employees. i served on the board of the Better Middlebury Partnership for several years and on its executive board as Vice President and then President. During that time we organized the signature events the community now enjoys Midd Summer Fest, Spooktacular, Very Merry Middlebury, and the Chili Festival all with the goal of creating both a sense of community and improving the local economy. BMP events generate a quarter of a million dollars annually for the Middlebury community. During my time on the board we started looking at the nonprofit organization from a business perspective and we sought and brought in younger board members to insure succession and continuity and started the process of developing a business plan that would serve not only the BMP but Middlebury as well by emphasizing smart local growth and the Middlebury experience. i was a designee to the Addison County Chamber of Commerce and the Addison County Economic Development Corporation and worked with others on a committee to bring an Economic Development Fund and Director to Middlebury. After only a year that is bearing fruit in bringing new businesses to Middlebury and creating jobs.

Letters to the Editor
Birthday bash To the Editor: On behalf of Dick Nordmeyer and the committee, i would like to thank you for all the recent news coverage of our community 250th birthday event. The pig roast was a sell out, the tag sales were busy and the Hubbardton Birthday Party was a hugh success. We couldnÕ t have done it without the Eagle. Thank you so much for making this day so special for Hubbardton. Claire OÕ Brien Hubbardton
Hereafter To the Editor: in Lou VarricchioÕ s editorial on August 2, he wrote, Ò i think that once iÕ m dead, thatÕ s pretty much it -- end of story. Until direct proof of transcendent realms is offered, i simply donÕ t concern myself with the dead.Ó From my reading, there is no direct proof for the existence of dark matter or dark energy. Yet, the best and brightest in the field of astronomy believe both exist. This belief is based on the observed effects of gravity in galaxy clusters and on the accelerating expansion of the universe. Mr Varricchio wrote his editorial with a purpose in mind. But doesnÕ t the very presence of Ò purposeÓ in oneÕ s mind demonstrate evidence for a transcendent realm? in other words, from where would a bundle of animated space dust, i.e., Mr. Varricchio or myself, source purpose? DoesnÕ t purpose point to us as being more than merely the current result of the laws of physics acting on matter and energy over the four and a half billion years since our supernova event? if all of reality can be summed up under matter and energy, then how is there any essence difference between us, as bundles of animated space dust, and granite rocks, which are bundles of un-animated space dust? it is logical to conclude that present evidence substantiates belief in the existence of dark matter and dark energy, even though the precise nature of either unknown. it also appears to me that with equal logic the idea of Ò purposeÓ in the human mind is one among numerous indicators that trace their genesis to the god who is there, even though god is beyond concrete empirical proof.

Fair & Field Days 2014 memories By Lou Varricchio
NEW HAVEN Ñ it was a busy week for Addison County Fair & Field Days organizers. The annual, much anticipated event had a successful run and wrapped up the 2014 fair season Aug. 9. Except for periods of rain showers Aug. 5 and Aug. 6, fairgoers enjoyed ideal summer weather during most of the week. This yearÕ s fair included a strong emphasis on Vermont traditions including everything from horse shows and dairy cow competitions to tractor pulling and old fashioned haying by hand events. Fairgoers of all ages also enjoyed an entertaining midway with a variety of amusements, games and gift stands. Local politicians were also at the fair with Democrats, Republicans, Progressives and independents represented during this
mid-term election campaign year. Addison CountyÕ s diverse agricultural sector was also on display with area loggers, Christmas tree producers, farmers, even orchard and vineyard owners, on hand to help educate fairgoers about the local agribusiness economy. Official attendance numbers were not available at press time, but anecdotal evidence indicates fair attendance was strong again this year. For fairgoer Holly Morgan-Stendack of East Middlebury, the best thing about the final day of the 2014 Fair and Field Days is that thereÕ s always next yearÕ s event. Ò My husband and i have been attending Field Days every year for the past 31 years, ever since we moved to Vermont from Connecticut,Ó she said. Ò We wouldnÕ t it miss it for anything. WeÕ re already looking forward to 2015Õ s Field DaysÑ especially the candy apples and fried dough.Ó

Vergennes Lions’ say thank you To the Editor: The Vergennes Lions Club wishes to thank everyone who contributed items to make this yearÕ s charity auction a success. Community support from businesses and individuals was outstanding. From the various newspapers promoting the auction to all of the many items donated, it was truly gratifying. The auction began with a silent auction and flea market at 5 p.m. followed by the 6 p.m. live auction, concluding around 9 p.m. Bridport auctioneer, Lion Tom Broughton, skillfully interspersed gift certificates from businesses and individuals, Lion member accompanied services with furniture, antiques, and other household items. Food and drinks were made available throughout the evening. The $6,100 raised from the 2014 auction and the $2000 raised by the Boston Red Sox ticket raffle will go back into our communities over the next year in the form of services and projects, as they live up to the LionsÕ motto Ò We Serve.Ó The Vergennes Lions want to remind everyone that the 2015 auction next July will be bigger and better. This is the way the Vergennes and Bristol area citizens get involved in helping others. Tim Cowan Vergennes Lions Club
Children enjoy the dragon ride along the Fair & Field Days midway.
Signs of the times To the Editor: Your editorial in the Aug. 9 issue is right on the mark. going north on Route 7 south of Pittsford you pass MitchellÕ s T-Shirts at the legal 50 mph. The next speed limit sign is 35 mph with no warning/transition sign. Then it goes down to 30 mph for the dangerous crossroad at the blinkerend of Route 3, at the Mobil station. There was a reduced speed sign at one time but, after giving the local constable deputy, and a Pittsford select board member notice about this, nothing has been done. i hope your thoughtful editorial will bring attention to these speed traps.

Lincoln loved Vermont, but never visited By Lou Varricchio
lou@addison-eagle.com MiDDLEBURY Ñ Despite the fact that U.S. President Abraham Lincoln never stepped foot on Vermont soil, he is sometimes linked to the green Mountain State on several accountsÑ first, being a Republican, Lincoln acknowledged the stateÕ s importance in his election and in supporting his anti-slavery views. The Lincoln institute, along with other sources, have noted several Lincoln-Vermont connections that are often overlooked in the history books, especially our local histories. Delivering the elections From first-hand accounts, we know that Abe Lincoln loved Vermont. The state delivered Lincoln the largest election victory in November 1860, winning 75 percent of Vermont voters. Four years later, during LincolnÕ s second election campaign, Vermonters delivered 76 percent of the in-state vote to Honest Abe. WhatÕ s not to love? First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln, Robert Todd Lincoln and Tad Lincoln visited Manchester in 1864, just a year before the president was assassinated. Mrs. Lincoln and her sons were treated as visiting royalty at ManchesterÕ s posh Equinox Hotel. According to Lincoln institute accounts, Ò the First Lady was smitten with the area, and enjoyed her summer stay... and made reservations to return the following summer with the President. The Equinox even built a special suite in anticipation of the PresidentÕ s stay. Fate intervened, however, and Lincoln was assassinated in April 1865.Ó First Lady and son Mount Abraham, the highest point along the green Mountain ridge within Addison County—and the state’s fifth tallest mountain—was renamed, after the slain president, in 1881. Prior to that, the massif went by the ignominious name Ò Potato HillÓ . Lincoln Peak is nearby. Had Lincoln had survived John Wilkes BoothÕ s attack, he would have likely selected the state as a place to retireÑ it is purported that the President talked about this possibility, sight unseen, with family and friends. His son,
President Lincoln owed his political success to Vermont’s GOP supporters. He is pictured here in November 1863.
President Lincoln’s son Robert Todd Lincoln built a sumptuous mansion, Hildene House, in Manchester, Vt. The First lady fell in love with Vermont when she visited the state during the 1860s. Image courtesy of Hildene
Library of Congress
Robert Todd Lincoln, like the First Lady, was enchanted with Vermont. Ò Decades later, after enormous was success as a public servant and as a businessman, he returned and purchased 500 acres in Manchester on which to build his summer home. The Hildene mansion has been painstakingly restored by the Friends of Hildene and is a popular tourist attraction,Ó according to Lincoln institute accounts. GOP and war One of the founders of LincolnÕ s beloved Republican Party, Vermont U.S. Sen. Justin Smith Morrill, spearheaded legislation that raised finds for arming the Union Army during the Civil War. Also, the Morrill Land grant College Act was signed by Lincoln into law in 1862. it was alleged that Lincoln promised Morrill a vacation in Vermont, via train, when the war endedÑ alas, the vacation never took place. According to the Congressional Record, Ò (MorrillÕ s) bill proposes to establish at least one college in every state upon a sure and perpetual foundation, accessible to all, but especially to the sons of toil, where all of needful science for the practical avocations of life shall be taught, where neither the higher graces of classical studies nor that military drill our country now so greatly appreciates will be entirely ignored, and where agriculture, the foundation of 54065 all present and future prosperity, may look for troops of earnest friends, studying its familiar and recondite economies, and at last elevating it to that higher level where it may fearlessly invoke comparison with the most advanced standards
of the world.Ó Green Mountain influence Back in the days when Vermont held a Republican voting majority, it influenced the making of presidents. For example, during the 1860 Republican National Convention held in Chicago, VermontÕ s political delegation was wooed by candidates William Seward (senator from New York), Nathaniel Banks (governor of Massachusetts), and Vermont U.S. Sen. Jacob Collamer. When the convention balloting started, the Vermont gOP delegation backed Collamer for president. (Collamoer made a name for himself when he U.S. postmaster general under President Taylor.) But after the first round of balloting, Collamer didnÕ t get enough votes to be nominated as a presidential candidateÑ he withdrew his name. However, a year later, Collamer showed his support of Lincoln by authoring the Congressional bill which affirmed the PresidentÕ s quasi-dictatorial powers to wage domestic war. At the time of the second balloting at the 1860 GOP convention, Vermont was the first to show its support of Lincoln. So, from the very start, Lincoln owed much of his presidencyÕ s success to Vermont. Maple syrup and presidents ThereÕ s an old Vermont dictum that says if someone sends you a can of maple syrup, it probably means they like you. So, when President Lincoln opened a note affixed to a brown paper-wrapped container at his White House desk during a dark, late spring morning in 1864, he smiled. The noteÑ and accompanying can of maple syrupÑ was from Vermont gov. J. gregory Smith, an ardent supporter of Honest Abe. A year later, gov. Smith was in the capital to meet the President for the first time and discuss VermontÕ s response to the Union draft. Then, in the autumn of 1864, a small group of confeder-
ate rebels invaded St. Albans with the intent to burn down SmithÕ s home. The St. Albans Raid, which has its 150th anniversary this October, goes down in American history as the northernmost action of the Civil War. Lincoln legacy Sixty-one years following the death of President Lincoln, Robert Todd Lincoln died at the Hildene mansion in Manchester. Of LincolnÕ s four sons, Robert Todd was the only one to reach adulthood. And Robert Todd was no stranger to presidential tragedy: He was either present, or physically near, the deaths of three U.S. presidents—Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley. According to Hildene, Ò Robert ToddÕ s father was born in a log cabin and called from the humblest rank in life to preside over our nation during the most momentous period of its history. One generation later, Robert Todd, the only child of Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln to survive to adulthood, became chairman of the Pullman Company, the largest manufacturing corporation at the turn of the 20th century. He built his georgian Revival mansion in 1905 in the scenic village of Manchester. it became home to only Lincoln descendants until 1975, longer than any other Lincoln residence. it is the great American Story.Ó The death of Robert Todd in Manchester in 1926 did not close the book on the Lincoln family story in Vermont. grand daughter Mary Lincoln Beckwith, called Peggy, lived at Hildene as a recluse until her death at Rutland Hospital in 1975. PeggyÕ s brother Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith, who spent many years at Hildene, was the last descendant of Abraham Lincoln; he died in 1985. Special thanks to the Lincoln Institute, Hildene: the Lincoln Family Home, and the Lincoln Home National Historic Site for providing background information, images, and quotes.

Local teens, adults on a mission By Christine Steadman Special to the Eagle
FERRiSBURgH Ñ North Ferrisburgh and Vergennes United Methodist churches sent 14 youth and adults on a recent, week long Mission trip to Barre. There we joined forces with a total of 63 teens and 33 adults to complete thirty worthwhile service projects for low income Vermonters. The people we serve could not afford the work otherwise. Those who went to the camp volunteered their time and abilities and funded the supplies needed if the person served could not supply them. Teens: Matt Becker, Daniel Emmell, Hannah Hatch, Megan Mcintyre, Munro McLaren, Elise Martin, Max Simko, Jennifer Steadman, and Sophie Wolak accomplished a lot. They built handicap ramps (two were completed), built stairs and decks, did yard work, painted rooms, sheds, garages and homes, repaired porches and various other tasks. The people they served were very grateful, Ò i thought my project was too big for teens, but i am so humbled that they chose to do such a great job for me.Ó, s aid one client. Ò i will have so much more freedom to come and go.Ó , said a frail man receiving one of the ramps. ÒO ur client was going to be evicted by her insurance company by the end of this week. We are so glad we built her two safe exits, which allow her to stay in her home, safely.Ó Said Max Simko of a deck and stairs project for a woman in her 70Õ s. ÒY ou canÕ t believe how hard the teens and adults work until you see it first hand. They give people hope, that good people still exist, and that there are many responsible teens in the world.Ó. These trips have become an annual event for the youth relating to North Ferrisburgh and Vergennes UMC. ÒS ome of our teens were on their third or fourth tripÓ, said Pastor Kim
The Ferrisburgh-Vergennes United Methodist teens are Munro McLaren, Megan McIntrye, Sophie Wolak, Max Simko, Elise Martin, Hannah Hatch, Daniel Emmell, Matt Becker, Jennifer Steadman. The adults are Lou McLaren, Pastor Kim Hornung-Marcy, Jeff Becker, Tom Rees and Christine Steadman. Hornung-Marcy. The program United Methodist Action Reach Out Mission by Youth (UMARMY) holds these week-long camps all over New England. This year there were two Vermont camps, the one in Barre and also one in Bradford, Vermont. The youth can keep doing this into their college and young adult years and as they move into young adulthood often become the leadership at the youth camps. The Barre Camp had three college students and one young adult all of whom played key roles. There is always an annual college student week as well where the projects are
more sophisticated than what the 7th-12th grade youth camps can accomplish. Every church sends two adults for every five teens. So we sent: Lou McLaren who learned how to cook breakfast and dinner for 100 people. Chris Steadman, Jeff Becker and Tom Rees who led teams of teens on their work projects and Pastor Kim Hornung-Marcy who was on the program team. The program team keeps morning and evening activities fun, meaningful and lively. For example Thursday night we hold client night where the clients join us for dinner and are in-
Town signs amendment agreement MiDDLEBURY Ñ On July 29, the Middlebury Select Board reviewed a list of Ò Early Release PackagesÓ for the Main Street and Merchants Row Railroad overpass bridge replacements, including a revised grant agreement with the Vermont Agency of Transportation recommended by the project engineering team. These are Ò discrete, smaller-scale projects related to the larger bridge/tunnel project that could potentially be initiated in advance of primary construction activity in order the expedite the completion of the overall project,Ó according to a public town
report on the meeting. Town Manager Kathleen Ramsay also reviewed an amended grant agreement with the State of Vermont that increases federal and state funding committed to the project to a not-to-exceed sum of $17,500,000, reflecting updated cost estimates provided by the project engineer. The Board authorized Ramsay to sign the amended agreement on behalf of the town.

vited to share what the teensÕ work means to them. This year a client wrote a poem and sang a song in the teens honor, others spoke eloquently of what the work means to them and to their neighborhoods. ÒY ou are having a ripple effect.Ó Said one client who received some new front yard landscaping. Ò i have had two neighbors tell me they will now paint their homes and a third neighbor hopes to do landscaping to match what you did for me. This man is opening a home to give respite care to brain injured patients. After hearing testimony like this the 95 camp members sing for the clients. it is a special time for all.

Farmers’ Market Week under way Per capita, Vermont has more farmers’ markets than any state in the nation By Lou Varricchio
lou@addison-eagle.com RUTLAND Ñ VermontÕ s Secretary of Agriculture, Chuck Ross joined Rutland County legislators at the Rutland Downtown FarmersÕ Market to kick-off National Farmers Market Week last week. The market, located at 98 MerchantÕ s Row in RutlandÕ s Depot Park, is one of eighty farmersÕ markets across the state. Per capita, Vermont has more farmersÕ markets than any other state in the nation. According to Ross, VermontÕ s thriving farmersÕ market community is a reflection of the values of Vermonters. Ò FarmersÕ markets bring communities together, provide local, healthy food, create opportunity for farmers, and preserve the Working Landscape, which is why so many Vermonters are proud to support them.Ó Ross said. He also believes the markets play an important educational role. Ò FarmersÕ markets connect consumers directly to the producers who grow and raise their food,Ó said Secretary Ross. Ò This connection is critical to fostering what i often refer to as Ô Ag Literacy,Õ an appreciation and understanding of where food comes from, and how farming works.Ó Ò Today, less than 2 percent of our national population works on a farm,Ó he continued. Ò FarmersÕ markets are one way we can ensure the other 98% remains connected to agriculture in these changing times.Ó FarmersÕ Market Week began in 2000 with a designation by the USDA, in recognition of the important role markets play in developing local and regional food systems. Nationwide, the week is celebrated August 3-9. VermontÕ s Agency of Agriculture, Food, and Markets partners closely with the Northeast Organic Farming Association of Vermont (NOFA-VT) and the Vermont FarmersÕ Market Association (VTFMA) in supporting efforts to strengthen and grow the stateÕ s network of FarmersÕ Markets.
