Summer is when it all happens in Vermont! Festivals, fairs, farmer’s markets, and good seeds being planted for Vermont independence. This week, the Vermont Cannabis Collaborative launches its eight month project to develop a business plan for cannabis legalization in our once and future republic, while the Burlington Beer Coop continues to develop its investor-operated ale offerings. Take a gander at our 2015 “Green Mountain Noise” for these two stories and so much more. Free Vermont, and long live the Untied States!
