  • Ski Industry Leases Of

    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.
  • Watergore Trial Orchard

    Watergore Trial Orchard

    NACM Short Report 5.5 Liz Copas 2005 WATERGORE TRIAL ORCHARD NOTE This trial site no longer exists and unfortunately some of the LA Disease Resistant seedling were grubbed out. Propagating material is still available of most of the other cultivars mentioned. SUMMARY Planted 1990 Main orchard planted to double rows N/S of Major, Ashton Bitter, Ellis Bitter and White Jersey at 18 x 8 on M25. This rootctock has proved rather too vigorous for the good soil on this site. In retrospect more effort was needed to control the early growth of these trees and induce cropping. The pruning trial [NACM 95/5/1] demonstrated some response to belated pruning to centre leader and bending or tying down strong lateral branches. This has served as a useful model for other orchards of these varieties. Planted 1995 Selected early harvesting seedlings from the Long Ashton [LA 1978] breeding program; 2 bittersweet, 4 sharps and 1 sweet, planted E/W on MM 106. Poor tree shape and excessively early flowering has ruled out many of these. The best are LA 13/2 and LA 13/7, Tremletts crosses with a strong resemblance to the parent but with some resistance to scab and mildew. Both need some initial tree training but could be kept annual. Planted 1996 Selected old varieties with some potential for bush orchards were planted on MM 106 . Of these the most promising are Broxwood Foxwhelp and possibly the other Foxwhelps [all bittersharps], also Don's Seedling [bittersweet] and Crimson King [sharp] as early harvesting varieties. Both Severn Banks [sharp] and Black Dabinett [bittersweet] could make useful late harvesting varieties.

  • Kale Apple Cake

    Kale Apple Cake

    RECIPE Hero Vegetable: Kale Kale Apple Cake Ingredients: 2 cups fresh kale, stems removed and roughly chopped 2 cups flour 3 apples, cored, and sliced into wedges 1 ¼ cup sugar ½ cup unsalted butter, melted ½ cup milk 3 eggs 1 Tbs lemon juice 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp vanilla extract ½ tsp salt ¼ cup sliced almonds (optional) powdered sugar for sprinkling(optional) Directions: Preheat your oven to 350F. Grease then fit a round sheet of parchment paper inside the bottom of a 10-inch springform pan, set aside. Steam or lightly boil the kale for about 2 minutes. The kale should be tender. Puree the kale leaves in a blender with a spoonful of water until smooth. Don’t add more water as the kale will release its own juices. (Now if your blender isn’t breaking up the kale easily, you can use the milk at this step instead of later to blend the kale if it makes it easier to puree) In a mixing bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Beat in the eggs, kale puree, vanilla, lemon juice, and milk, mixing until the batter just combined. Pour in the cooled melted butter and beat until well incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. (If the batter is thick, this is ok. The apples will release juices as the cake bakes.) Arrange the apple slices into the batter, pushing them into the batter slightly. Sprinkle the almonds evenly over the cake batter. Bake the cake for 35-45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake (not into an apple) comes out clean.
