About Our Community
Welcome to Vermont
Vermont is a beautiful state to live in. It is full of opportunities for business, outdoor enthusiasts, and raising a family.
Along ‘the west coast of New England’ is Vermont’s Champlain Valley. Its geography, culture, history, and climate create an award-winning environment of special quality and unparalleled beauty.
Lake Champlain (sometimes called America’s 6th Great Lake) provides a wealth of recreational opportunities in summer: sailing, swimming, water-skiing, scuba diving, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, boating, and windsurfing. In addition bike paths, trails, and parks are found practically in every town. Fantastic views of the brilliant lake and rolling foothills, as well as the Green and Adirondack Mountains, are never far from sight.
