Vermont Farms and Timber Get $32M Boost

Vermont’s agriculture and timber sectors are getting a major lifeline with nearly $32 million in federal disaster relief funding, aimed squarely at those hit hardest by devastating floods in 2023 and 2024. This block grant, part of the American Relief Act of 2025, supports rebuilding damaged infrastructure, stabilizing timber markets, and helping farmers recover from weather-related losses. Governor Phil Scott stressed the urgency of adapting to climate-driven disasters and building long-term resilience. Applications are expected to open later this year—farmers and timber operators affected by the floods should prepare to apply. This is a critical investment to restore and strengthen Vermont’s vital rural industries. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
