New York State ............................ 60 Index of Farms & Processors ......... 63 Index of Advertisers .................... 66 Vermont Organic Farmers, LLC The USDA accredited certification agency owned by NOFA Vermont Vermont Organic Farmers was created in 1985 to help producers and concerned consumers define what it meant to farm organically. These standards for organic production in Vermont were created by the farmers who were dedicated to practices that used a holistic approach to soil fertility, pest control, and plant and animal health. In 2002, with input from the organic community, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) implemented the National Organic Program (NOP), which created national standards for organic food. The role of VOF is to certify farmers and processors to the NOP standards, which ensures that producers are achieving the necessary requirements. Our purpose is to provide a highly credible program for independent third-party verification of organic food production, and to assist Vermont farmers and processors of all types to achieve the highest possible organic standards. To view the complete standards for crop, livestock, maple, and food processing, please visit our website: www.nofavt.org/vof. Look for the VOF logo the next time you are shopping to support local organic producers! 2 • 2019–2020 VERMONT ORGANIC FARM & FOOD GUIDE NOFA Vermont Growing the demand for organic.

  • Ski Industry Leases Of
    Vermont State Auditor Douglas R. Hoffer Report to the Vermont Legislature and the Agency of Natural Resources State Land Leases Boost Ski Industry, but Are Dated and Inconsistent 1/20/2015 • Office of the Vermont State Auditor • Non-Audit Report 15-01 Mission Statement The mission of the Vermont State Auditor’s Office is to hold government accountable. This means ensuring taxpayer funds are used effectively and efficiently, and that we foster the prevention of waste, fraud, and abuse. Principal Investigator Andrew C. Stein Non-Audit Inquiry This is a non-audit report. A non-audit report is a tool used to inform citizens and management of issues that may need attention. It is not an audit and is not conducted under generally accepted government auditing standards. A non-audit report has a substantially smaller scope of work than an audit. Therefore, its conclusions are more limited, and it does not contain recommendations. Instead, the report includes information and possible risk-mitigation strategies relevant to the entity that is the object of the inquiry. DOUGLAS R. HOFFER STATE AUDITOR STATE OF VERMONT OFFICE OF THE STATE AUDITOR January 20, 2015 The Honorable Shap Smith Speaker of the House of Representatives The Honorable John Campbell President Pro Tempore of the Senate The Honorable Peter Shumlin Governor Deb Markowitz Secretary of Natural Resources Dear Colleagues, More than 70 years ago, the State decided to catalyze a new industry by leasing public land to companies willing to invest in the infrastructure necessary for downhill skiing. By most measures, this partnership has been successful, and our iconic mountains are now home to world- famous ski areas.
