Last week we learned about a program that has helped a great number of people throughout the state including many in Windham County. I love programs that achieve multiple âwinsâ and Everyone Eats is one of those.
When the pandemic struck and a State of Emergency was declared in Vermont, many people and businesses were negatively affected, perhaps none more than our restaurants. As a result, other folks down the line felt the pinch, in this case, the people who work at or supply fresh products to those restaurants. The drop in business was staggering and it took a while to pivot and find other ways to keep their businesses going. We have heard testimony from farmers who established an online presence and have done extremely well but there are others who continued to struggle.
