In a suit filed on October 20 in U.S. District Court in Burlington, the Caledonian-Record says it was damaged when Ken Wells lied about his newspaper’s circulation to advertisers and downloaded nearly 700 photographs from Associated Press (AP) using the St. Johnsbury- based paper’s password and account without its knowledge or permission. Most or all of the photos were published in the Daily Express, the suit claims.

  • Central and NEK Vermont Chapters Projects
    Central and NEK Vermont Chapters Projects A Note to Interns and Volunteers Among the perks and joys of volunteering is making new friends while spending time “getting dirty” among fellow gardeners who are also earning their hours. There are always volunteer opportunities that don’t require hands-on gardening along with many that do. I encourage you to offer assistance with projects. Planners may not yet realize they need help with gardening plans, signage, landscaping or other tasks. Unless you offer suggestions or ask how you can help, you may never know. The incredible, selfless work being done around the state by our EMGs continues to amaze me! Having worked many hours at the North Branch Nature Center as my project, I can safely say that I look forward to socializing with my friends while we plant, prune, weed, dig and tackle whatever task is needed. Everyone I have met has become a friend. In my job as Northern Support, I have visited many projects and continue to marvel at their quality and diver- sity. How many pounds of food are grown and donated to food shelves around the state? How many non-gar- deners learn from what we are doing and go on to have successful gardens of their own? How many public places and spaces are enhanced by our work? It is appreciated by all who see the gardens or reap the benefits of our work. Welcome to the program!

  • Natural Resources
    Chapter Seven: Natural Resources I. OVERVIEW The Northeast Kingdom is recognized for its diverse wildlife, large undeveloped areas, and vast woodlands. The region’s natural resources (depicted in Figure 7.1 on the following page) provide residents and others a variety of benefits. The largest source of revenue in the region is from outdoor recreation, and much of the tourism industry relies on the healthy and scenic environment to remain viable. Therefore, the natural resources in the Northeast Kingdom have intrinsic scenic and economic values that require careful consideration when making planning decisions. The overarching goal for the region is to balance local economic needs with the protection of the resources that so many of region’s residents enjoy and depend upon. The Northeast Kingdom lies mostly within three physiographic regions: • The Northeast Highlands, an extension of New Hampshire’s White Mountains, make up most of Essex County and northern Caledonia County. On average, this area is cooler than the rest of the state. The growing season here averages less than 90 days and snowfall accumulation frequently exceeds 36 inches. • In much of Orleans County and parts of Caledonian County the topography is primarily rolling hills interspersed with occasional plains of fertile agricultural soils. Both of these physiographic regions have extensive glacial deposits. • The third region is the Connecticut River Valley, which extends the length of the region along its eastern border. Level topography and rich alluvial soils well suited for agriculture characterize this physiographic region. The forests are mainly northern hardwoods with large stands of red spruce and balsam fir.

  • Northeast Kingdom Nature Trail (PDF)
    Northeast Kingdom Nature Trail a self-guided interpretive trail with 15 stations Brighton State Park Island Pond, Vermont Brighton State Park Northeast Kingdom Nature Trail Brighton State Park lies in the heart of Vermont’s northeastern highlands. This remote corner of the state is known as the “Northeast Kingdom.” A deep evergreen forest blankets much of the surrounding hills. Ponds and lakes are nestled in the wide valleys. This is the wildest and most isolated area in Vermont, rich in legends of Indians and loggers, railroads and rum-runners. According to local lore, Five Iroquois Nations and the St. Francis Abenakis camped here and used Indian Point as a meeting ground. The forest surrounding you is the result of centuries of change. It is vastly different from the forest encountered by the first European settlers. Logging, agriculture and development continue to shape the forest. Despite, or perhaps because of human influence, the forest to the west of Spectacle Pond has been transformed into a unique collection of plants and animals. The mature red pine stand and its understory of boreal plants is a unique natural community that has hosted nesting ravens. The fifteen-acre site is a state designated Natural Area. Along this trail, you will be able to explore some of the nature and history of Brighton and the Northeast Kingdom. See Map in Center of this Guide Spectacle Pond “The short portage between the pond and the boatable waters of the Nulhegan pointed out this as the route of the Indians in their annual pilgrimage between the great river and the seas from time immemorial.
