Vermont is losing its working landscape at dizzying speed. And a working landscape has shaped not only the landscape but the people, culture and politics. We are set to lose over 200 dairy farms this year. And that's not our only problem. We have the second oldest population in the country and tourism is our chief industry.
Vermont is on the way to becoming a precious little place for rich people.
