Rooted in Vermont since 1977, we have protected more than 620,000 acres, or 11% of the private land in Vermont. These farms, forests, and community spaces shape our identity and support our wellbeing. They provide us with healthy food and clean water, habitat for plants and wildlife, economic opportunity,  protection from a changing climate, and natural areas that inspire and delight.  With expertise in conservation, ecology, community engagement, and finance, our team helps to:  - Conserve land with important economic and environmental benefits by limiting development and ensuring sound land stewardship practices  - Support farmers in buying land and growing sustainable businesses  - Restore wetlands, improve forest and soil health, and share that knowledge with all who care for land  - Ensure that permanent legal protections on 2,200 parcels are upheld, in partnership with landowners   - Connect all people to land through education and events

A statewide nonprofit organization founded in 1974, the Vermont Humanities Council strives to make Vermont a state in which every individual reads, participates in public affairs, and continues to learn throughout life. A state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities, VHC believes that engagement with the world of ideas, in interaction with others, contributes uniquely to richer lives, stronger communities, a more humane society, and a better world. The Vermont Humanities Council has developed a broad range of programs that serve Vermonters of all ages and backgrounds. Each year VHC sponsors more than 1,200 programs. They occur in more than 160 Vermont towns, including communities in every county. Programs include book discussions, speaker events, conferences, a statewide one-book community reading program, and a grants program that supports humanities projects of other nonprofit organizations. These programs and events strengthen Vermont’s communities not only by their character and design, but also by happening in the facilities of key town organizations such as libraries, museums, community centers, and schools. And humanities-based literacy programs reach childcare providers, middle school students, teen and underserved parents, incarcerated adults, and adult basic education students. The humanities are those subjects that help us understand the human experience. They are the tools of self-reflection. The humanities include history, literature, ethics, philosophy, archaeology, linguistics, comparative religion, jurisprudence, and the history, criticism and theory of the arts.

Since 1965, the Council has been the state's primary provider of funding, advocacy, and information for the arts in Vermont.
