Report to the Vermont Cheese Council
MAKERS & MONGERS Exploring Social Networks in the Regional Supply Chain for Vermont Artisan Cheese Prepared for: The Vermont Cheese Council By: Rachel A. DiStefano, M.S., Food Systems, University of Vermont Dr. Amy B. Trubek, University of Vermont June, 2014 I. Executive Summary Three major themes emerged from the social network analysis of supply networks for Vermont artisan cheese: types of relationships, varieties of retail operation, and importance of distributors. The results indicate that the regional supply chain is a multiplex system stemming from a complex balance between a cheesemaker’s goals and the needs of various retailers. Relationships: The relationships between cheesemakers and retailers ranged from highly social and personal to distanced and business minded. The social network is clustered around several well-connected cheesemakers and retailers. The scale of production and number of years in business influences a cheesemaker’s centrality in the social network. Retail: The majority of Vermont cheesemakers sell to retailers both inside and outside of Vermont. Vermont cheesemakers rely on a diverse variety of retail venues – from ultra-local general stores to large national supermarket chains – across the region. Food cooperatives, primarily in Vermont, emerged as highly central in the social network. The consistent champions of Vermont cheese outside of Vermont appear to be small specialty retailers – either dedicated cheese shops or gourmet food stores. Distributors: Distributors play crucial roles as intermediaries between cheesemakers and retailers. When distributors become involved in selling Vermont artisan cheese, cheesemaker-retailer relationships often resemble a sales network rather than a social network. Page 2 II. Background Why do people like Vermont artisan cheese? What makes it unique, desirable, and good to eat? Previous research with consumers has demonstrated that social information related to where and how Vermont artisan cheese is made is important—not just for preference but for physiological sensory experience. -

In it, Fleming examined the consequences of an economy that destroys the very foundations—ecological, economic, and cultural—upon which it is built. Knowing that collapse is the only possible outcome, he asked, and envisioned, “What will follow?” Now, in partnership with Fleming’s estate and his close friend and collaborator Shaun Chamberlin, Chelsea Green Publishing announces the release of Fleming’s posthumous work—Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It. Characteristic of Fleming’s wit, whimsy, and rebellion, he chose an all but bygone form—a written dictionary— to express his views of a future beyond industrial capitalism. -

1976 Past and Present Final V2
Preface For most of us, there is a great satisfaction in looking back at our heritage. Then, it was a treat to cross a covered bridge, walk down a shady lane or celebrate the Fourth of July with a picnic. So many events (like threshing bees and barn raisings) meant sweat and hard work, and so many were worth the effort. For one thing, they have helped give us the affluent life style we have come to take for granted. The Bicentennial Year 1976 did make us pause and think: What are we doing for those who gave us that heritage...and who will keep the records for posterity? In the beginning, one member from nearly all area organizations was delegated to form a Bicentennial Committee. Their immediate objectives were completed, but the group had collected a great deal of historical material. It would be a shame, they felt, to have this material once more hidden by the dust of time. It seemed inevitable that all this material they'd gathered be formed into something permanent. Four Monticello people took the initial move to see what other towns were doing in this area of putting their history in book form. After the first organizational meeting, interest and support in the community grew to a gratifying level. By the portrayals and depictions in this book, the committee wishes to repay the community for its interest and support. Thomas Brusveen July, 1977 Monticello's Bicentennial observance included an ecumenical religious service on the shore of Lake Montesian...1976. Message from the Mayor It is appropriate that the Monticello Historical Committee should be formed at this time, and produce this publication. -
Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers Published February 15, 2017
The American Cheese Society’s Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers Published February 15, 2017 Copyright © 2016, 2017 American Cheese Society First Edition, 2016 Reprinted with revisions, 2017 All figures in this Guide and documents in the Appendix have been reprinted with permission from the copyright holders. Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers Introduction In 2016, the American Cheese Society (ACS) released its Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers (Guide). Its completion was a key strategic goal of the Board of Directors, and the central task with which the Regulatory & Academic Committee had been charged. ACS members requested such a resource, and by way of response, this Guide was created to encompass currently accepted best practices for cheesemaking. This second edition of the Guide includes updates based on changing regulations, incorporates direct feedback and clarification from reviewers at the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, and provides more current resources and templates where available. This Guide provides an easy reference for busy cheesemakers—especially small- to mid-size producers—one which can be readily accessed. Regulatory agencies and academics provide information in great detail, but it is often buried within volumes of text. This Guide gleans the key requirements, suggestions, and practices from that vast sea of information, and attempts to condense them into a more easily digestible format written in more accessible language. I hope you will find that the information provided in this Guide is useful and answers some of your key questions. Please keep in mind that this is not a static document. The Guide will continually grow and change based on feedback from members, academics, regulators, and others. -
The Political Economy of Deep Decarbonization: Tradable Energy Quotas for Energy Descent Futures
energies Review The Political Economy of Deep Decarbonization: Tradable Energy Quotas for Energy Descent Futures Samuel Alexander * and Joshua Floyd Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute, University of Melbourne, Melbourne 3010, Australia; josh@joshfloyd.com * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 14 July 2020; Accepted: 17 August 2020; Published: 19 August 2020 Abstract: This paper reviews and analyses a decarbonization policy called the Tradable Energy Quotas (TEQs) system developed by David Fleming. The TEQs system involves rationing fossil fuel energy use for a nation on the basis of either a contracting carbon emission budget or scarce fuel availability, or both simultaneously, distributing budgets equitably amongst energy-users. Entitlements can be traded to incentivize demand reduction and to maximize efficient use of the limited entitlements. We situate this analysis in the context of Joseph Tainter’s theory about the development and collapse of complex societies. Tainter argues that societies become more socio-politically and technologically ‘complex’ as they solve the problems they face and that such complexification drives increased energy use. For a society to sustain itself, therefore, it must secure the energy needed to solve the range of societal problems that emerge. However, what if, as a result of deep decarbonization, there is less energy available in the future not more? We argue that TEQs offers a practical means of managing energy descent futures. The policy can facilitate controlled reduction of socio-political complexity via processes of ‘voluntary simplification’ (the result being ‘degrowth’ or controlled contraction at the scale of the physical economy). Keywords: Tradable Energy Quotas (TEQs); deep decarbonization; renewable energy; post-carbon; carbon budget; epistemic humility; energy descent; Tainter; voluntary simplification; degrowth 1. -
