It's giving season and we’re celebrating an amazingly successful year! One of our most celebrated wins this past legislative season was the passage of Act 93 - the uninspected poultry parts bill…here are what rural Vermonters have to say about the impact of Rural Vermont’s work in 2024:

“Thanks to advocacy of Rural VT and others the Poultry Parts bill passed in 2024 and had an immediate impact on our small farm. We have been able to keep our production numbers the same while increasing the price per pound that we fetch for our chicken and we hope it will make our farm viable for years to come!”
-Em Virzi, Union Brook Farm

“I feel blessed to be a poultry farmer in Vermont with an organization like Rural Vermont to support important legislative challenges that we face. Rural Vermont led the charge on the passing of the H.603 Poultry Parts Bill and it was great to see farmers rally around the cause and get the bill through the house and senate committees. I am looking forward to being involved in additional impactful legislation in the future!"
-Jack Vorster, Greenman Farm
