Policy Team in Action - Watch Rural Vermont Committee Introductions and Testimony

As you likely know, this legislative session is being held almost entirely virtually. Trying to realize our mission through mostly online communications rattles our deep desire to always ground relationships eye to eye with feet on the ground. As farmers get more accustomed to online marketing strategies and zoom meetings, we cope with the “new norm” of a virtual legislative session. One advantage of the new online format is the ability to follow legislative activity live on YouTube and view recordings at any time.
