    Vermont Trivia

    Vermont.com ... is Vermont! Fact: Vermont is the largest producer of maple syrup in the country.


    True! - Vermont scored 37% of the total U.S. maple syrup production in 2000. In that year, the 2000 or so maple producers in the state managed to boil down about 460,000 gallons of syrup worth an estimated street value of $13,340,000. How sweet is that!
