St. Johnsbury, Vermont

Located in the heart of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, approximately 40 miles (64 kilometers) east of Montpelier, lies the small community of St. Johnsbury. Set amongst the rolling Appalachian Mountains, majestic forests, farmlands, lakes, and small villages, St. Johnsbury is quintessentially the storybook setting of Vermont.

With a unique architectural style, the 6,319 residents of St. Johnsbury are split between two different elevations, but neighborhoods, shops, and restaurants that span the two areas create a united community. Local opportunities for entertainment include the Catamount Film & Arts, the St. Johnsbury Players, the Athenaeum, the Shores Museum, and the Vermont Children's Theater. You can learn more about St. Johnsbury's industrial past at the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium, which showcases the E & T Fairbanks Company and the precise Fairbanks scales for which the company became world-renowned.

Despite its industrial past, today, St. Johnsbury is by no means a large industrial city. With a variety of historic buildings lining Main Street and a tree-filled community, St. Johnsbury maintains an emphasis on the great outdoors. Situated in a region known as the Northeast Kingdom, St. Johnsbury is close to numerous opportunities for skiing, hiking, paddling, and fishing. Named by a US senator, who proclaimed that the region had more natural beauty than any kingdom on the planet, the Northeast Kingdom is composed of Orleans, Caledonia, and Essex counties. Outdoor enthusiast will be kept busy in the scenic wonderland created by the Passumpsic, Moose, Sleeper Rivers, and the nearby Burke Mountain.

From the springtime maple syrup harvest to rustic ski lodges to lazy summer afternoons spent on the banks of the Sleeper River, you will enjoy the quiet charm that permeates the air in this quaint New England town.
