The 2021 Vermont Farm Show has been canceled
The 2021 Vermont Farm has been canceled, according to Marissa Watson, the show's organizer. It was scheduled to run January 26-29, 2021 at the Champlain Valley Exposition in Essex Junction, but was put on pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"It was a difficult decision to make," Watson said, "we did look into the option of doing a virtual show, but it was ultimately determined that wouldn't be a good option for the Vermont Farm Show."
"We spent all summer trying to find an alternative to host a virtual show, and after polling our vendors an working with the board, we decided the prudent decision would be to postpone the 2021 Farm Show," Watson told WCAX news on Oct. 9.
Watson added that the Vermont Farm Show is looking forward to seeing the in-person show return to the Expo in January 2022.
