The film offers an honest, firsthand look at the opportunities and challenges shaping farming in Vermont today. From food production and local economies to water quality, environmental stewardship, regulations, and the future of working lands, the documentary explores the vital role agriculture plays in communities across the state.
Agriculture has always been more than an industry in Vermont. It is the foundation of our landscape, economy, and identity. But rising costs, volatile markets, labor shortages, unpredictable weather, and changing regulations continue to place significant pressure on farm families. Despite these challenges, Vermont farmers continue to innovate, expand conservation practices, produce nutritious food, and strengthen the communities around them.
Supporting local agriculture means more than buying local products. It means recognizing the people behind those products, understanding the realities they face, and ensuring Vermont remains a place where farms can continue to thrive for generations to come.
The State of Farming is proudly produced by Monument Farms, the Vermont Dairy Promotion Council, the Vermont Dairy Producers Alliance, and Mt. Mansfield Media.
