Got Milk?

Posted by Kimberly Sherman June 4, 2008 09:23 AM

dairyfestvt.jpg Enosburg Falls, Vt. celebrates the simple things in life. This weekend, June 5-8, the town celebrates its 52nd Annual Vermont Dairy Festival. What some take for granted as an unlimited late night drink with their Oreos, others know it as a way of life. In Vermont the working dairy farms have dwindled like most of the country, but those who are left, take the same kind of pride in their work, and their way of life as the generations before them. Bring the whole family and enjoy arts and crafts, horse pulling, live entertainment, midway and many concessions. Bring the sneakers too and participate in the much-anticipated Milk Run. No country festival is complete without a grand parade, in this case, celebrating milk and all it gives to its communities.
