  • 2021 Vermont Holiday Gift Guide
    Our annual Gift Guide brims with ideas both heartfelt and whimsical, from do-gooder gifts that support worthy causes to selections intended simply to make someone smile. In a time of supply chain shortages, these gifts have been vetted and should be in stock. And all have a touch of the Green Mountain State, whether they're handcrafted by local makers or purchased from Vermont retailers. Shopping local is a gift that keeps on giving, strengthening our economy and community. Shop online or do curbside pickup if you need to, but deposit your dollars directly into our downtowns, not into Jeff Bezos' pockets.

  • Pandemic Pick: Which Local Shop Perfected Contact-Free Shopping?
    Though most nonessential retailers shut down only after the governor's "Stay Home, Stay Safe" order in March 2020, Common Deer was ahead of the curve. As co-owner Sarah Beal explained, her shop was among the first to close before the mandate. "It was really clear to us that this was going to be a lot longer than everyone assumed," she said, "so we hunkered down and made big decisions for how we wanted the [coming] months to go."

  • Local Bookstores Sell Pandemic Page-Turners
    Bookstores are not officially "essential" businesses in a pandemic — or so Gov. Phil Scott declared when he handed down his stay-at-home order on March 24. But locally owned, independent bookstores play a vital role in communities across Vermont. Not only do they sell books — gateways to learning, adventure and escape — they're also gathering places. They contribute to cultural life by hosting readings and author events. (Paid Post)
