WMS Map: Northeast Kingdom of Vermont is Less Agricultural then You Might Think

About Northeast Kingdom of Vermont is Less Agricultural then You Might Think ....

A lot of people think cows when they think of the Green Mountain State. Vermont often celebrates it's rural heritage and agricultural is a big part of land use along Lake Champlain but the same can't be said about the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. While there are certainly farms up that way, there is a lot less crop growing then some of the real agricultural areas of New York.
