Mad River
Valley Foodshed Map Now Available! |
|
|
This has been a
dream of ours since our Localvore group first
formed back in 2006 - to document the Mad River
Valley Foodshed and make it available in a map.
Thanks to small grants from the
Vermont Agency
of Agriculture and the
Ben and Jerry's
Foundation this map* is now available!
We will be distributing the maps at events
throughout the summer or you can get a map at
the MRV Chamber of Commerce.
Kate Stephenson headed up this project and
worked with graphic artist Sian Foulkes an the
design. It was printed right here in the
Mad River Valley by E-Color! Nice job! |
|
* Please note that
some farms asked not to be listed and others
were so new that they didn't make it onto this
map, but we plan to keep the map up-to-date so
please let us know of other farms that need to
be on the map and we will add them to the
on-line maps and also make sure they are on the
next printing. |
 Google
Map of the Mad River Valley Foodshed Updated
Too!
We have also just updated our interactive
Google Map of our Foodshed to match the
printed map.
