  • VGVGA annual weighoff (October 11th, 2008) - great weekend and great weather at Sam Mazza's Farmstand in Colchester, VT.   We had 16 growers weighing pumpkins and squash.  For results use the following link:

  • Lake Champlain Regional Chamber of Commerce and VGVGA Regatta (October 12th, 2008) - hoping this will become an annual event, what a blast!   We helped to raise over $1000 for United Way and over 600 pounds of food was donated to the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf.   Not to mention a good time had by all, estimated over 500 spectators and lots of press (we made quite a splash).   Check out these news articles:
