Immerse yourself by Vermont State

The Vermont Fresh Network is a nonprofit organization founded in 1996 with the mission of advancing relationships among farmers, chefs, and consumers to grow markets and eat more locally grown food. 

Over the years, our membership has grown to include specialty food and beverage producers, as well as institutions and other markets. All of these connections work to support a flourishing local food system for the benefit of our environment, our communities, our health, and the overall strength of the rural economy. 

As part of our broader effort to educate the public about Vermont agriculture and local food, we collaborate with other non-profit organizations through our DigInVT partnership to inspire travelers to seek out local food and agritourism experiences. We hope to educate anyone who explores Vermont’s local food and drink about the philosophy of preserving our rural identity and lifestyle by keeping Vermont farms working and keeping our green spaces open!
