About Vermont

Vermont is a top commodity. Visitors to the second least-populous state in the country more than compensate for its relatively small number of permanent residents. Indeed, tourism is one of the state’s strongest industries. Guests have long been fascinated with Vermont—its mountains attracting skiers in the winter and its scenic resources attracting hikers and inspiration-seeking artists in the warmer months. Many of Vermont’s industries are geared towards specialty items that exude the state’s unique culture. Visitors enjoy hockey sticks, furniture and paper created from Vermont timber and by Vermont manufacturers. And the agricultural sector pumps out classic Vermont staples such as milk and maple syrup.
