The Vibes Are Handmade

Here, you don’t need a trail map framed on your wall or a list of peaks to climb. You can just start walking – or biking, or sipping, or leaning into the generous quiet of time spent in the Green Mountains.

SIX(ISH) SEASONS

Vermont doesn’t do nature by halves or by four seasons.

Depending on who you ask, we have six: spring, summer, fall, winter, plus the beloved maple season and stick season

HOME TO THE GREATEST DENSITY OF WRITERS AND ARTISTS

Vermont’s independent spirit has nurtured a creative culture that far exceeds its size. With over 190 performing arts organizations, 75 museums, and countless festivals, the state stands out as a lasting cultural hub. This vitality is rooted in both place and mindset: the quiet, distraction-free landscape invites reflection, while the same hands-on ethos that built farms and small businesses continues to shape its theaters, galleries, and creative spaces.

Farm to table, we just call it dinner

EASIEST PLACE TO EAT LOCAL IN AMERICA

Vermont’s been doing farm to table since before it had a name. With over 6,500 farms, fresh, local, and ridiculously good food isn’t a trend, it’s traditionally how we’ve always eaten. Around here, knowing where your food came from is as much a part of the experience as what’s on the plate.
