The Champlain Valley Guide to Local Food and Farms is an annual publication featuring a directory of local food producers in the county.

The Addison Independent releases the Guide as an insert in an early May edition, and for the first time, we’ll also insert into Seven Days! We’ll print and distribute 20,000 copies total around the Champlain Valley.
