Since 2012, $32 million has been invested in Vermont. EXAMPLES OF NEW LOCAL INVESTMENTS MADE TO DATE INCLUDE: • Partnering with the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation to reduce interest rates for Vermont parents and students to the lowest rates ever offered; • Increasing lending capacity with the Vermont Community Loan Fund from $500,000 to $1,000,000; •Supporting NeighborWorks of Western Vermont in their efforts to help more Vermonters become homeowners and make energy efficient home improvements. www.vbsr.org @VBSR www.facebook.com/VermontBusinessesforSocialResponsibility LETTER FROM THE OFFICE OF THE STATE TREASURER Vermont’s “Buy Local” mentality is much more than a slogan. For Vermonters it’s a way of life and a commitment to helping our neighbors through investing in our communities. That’s why the Vermont State Treasurer’s Office and lawmakers have worked closely with stakeholders to reauthorize and extend the work of the Local Investment Advisory Committee (LIAC) as well as the lending capacity of the State Treasurer’s Office to invest up to 10% of the State’s average cash balance for local investments in Vermont’s economy. We have made significant investments since our efforts started in 2012—over $32 million has been committed to local investments to date. Through the Vermont Economic Development Authority (VEDA), the Vermont Housing Financing Agency (VHFA), NeighborWorks of Western Vermont, the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation (VSAC), Champlain Housing Trust, and other entities, millions of dollars have been invested in economic development, affordable housing units, energy efficiency, and renewable energy projects that are good for Vermont’s future. During the most recent legislative session, the Treasurer’s Office and the Vermont Community Loan Fund worked together to increase the lending capacity of the State Treasurer’s Office with the Loan Fund from $500,000 to $1 million to build off the successful investments to date. Through a collaborative partnership and a commitment to working together we can continue to improve our cities and towns by putting our money to work at the local level.

ENVIRONMENT Independent, community-serving businesses are people-sized. They typically consume less land, carry more locally made products, locate closer to residents and create less traffic and air pollution. 5. LOWER TAXES More efficient land use and more central locations mean local businesses put less demand on our roads, sewers, and safety services. They also generate more tax revenue per sales dollar. The bottom line: a greater percentage of local independent businesses keeps your taxes lower. The Church Street Marketplace offers a unique shopping experience in downtown Burlington. 6. G ET REAL VALUE FOR YOURSELF Reader surveys by the Consumers Union repeatedly show independent businesses beating their chain competitors in overall customer satisfaction (and they often save you money).

Over 600 Vermont farmers & processors who make up Vermont Organic Farmers (VOF) know that choosing local and organic matters. Healthier for You & Your Family Organic certification standards prohibit toxic persistent herbicides and pesticides, antibiotics, artificial hormones and genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Minimizing exposure to these toxins can reduce your risk of health problems and organic foods can have higher levels of beneficial nutrients. Supports Your Community Supporting local organic farms keeps money in the local economy: on average, organic farms create more jobs than conventional farms. Better for the Land Organic farming protects soil, water and air quality by sequestering carbon and reducing harmful runoff, which ensures productive farmland for the future. Tastes Great LEARN MORE ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF LOCAL AND ORGANIC AT www.nofavt.org/why-organic The short distance from farm to table means farmers can choose varieties for flavor (not shelf life) and can harvest at the peak of ripeness. Grown Without GMOs Organic farmers don’t use GMO seeds, plants or animal feeds, and organic processed foods don’t contain GMO ingredients. VOF, the certification program of NOFA-VT, provides a highly credible program for verification of organic food production and assists Vermont farmers and processors to achieve the highest possible organic standards. SUPPORT FARMERS MARKETS • There are a variety of products and producers to choose from, typically including vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs, cheese, baked goods, and more. • Markets often have music or other entertainment. • Seasonal and certified organic items priced competitively to grocery stores. In a 2015 pricing study, the Vermont Agency of Agriculture found that 92% of the time, certified organic produce at farmers’ markets is competitively priced with the items at retail stores! FIND A FARMERS’ MARKET NEAR YOU! www.nofavt.org/farmersmarkets FARMERS’ MARKET SHOPPING TIPS: • Arrive early for the best selection • Do a “lap” of the market to see what’s available before you buy • Bring your own bags • Bring small bills or check our directory to see if your market accepts debit & EBT cards • Buy in bulk and in season for the best deals • Try something new and ask questions www.vbsr.org/local_first_vermont @LocalFirstVT www.facebook.com/LocalFirstVT 2 0 1 6 - 2 0 17 BUY LOCAL RESOUR CE G U ID E & CO U PO N B O O K 17 2 0 1 6 - 2 0 17 BUY LOCAL RESOUR CE G U ID E & CO U PO N B O O K 18 BANK LOCAL BANK AND INVEST LOCALLY 1. GET THE SAME SERVICES AT LOWER COST Small banks and credit unions generally offer lower fees, better interest rates on savings and better terms on credit cards and other loans. 2. PUT YOUR MONEY TO WORK GROWING YOUR LOCAL ECONOMY Small businesses, which create the majority of new jobs, depend heavily on small, local banks for financing. 3. KEEP DECISION-MAKING LOCAL Lending decisions at local institutions are often made by people who live in the community, have face-to-face relationships with their customers, and understand local needs. 4. BACK INSTITUTIONS THAT ARE LINKED TO YOUR COMMUNITY The fortunes of local banks and local communities are intertwined. When the community prospers, the local bank prospers too. 5. SUPPORT PRODUCTIVE INVESTMENT, NOT GAMBLING In 2015, the State Treasurer’s Office increased it’s lending capacity with the Vermont Community Loan Fund from $500,000 to $1,000,000. Large banks may devote considerable resources to speculative trading and other Wall Street bets that may generate big profits for the bank, but provide little value to the community. This puts the entire financial system at risk if they go bad. www.vbsr.org @VBSR www.facebook.com/VermontBusinessesforSocialResponsibility 2 0 1 6 - 2 0 17 BUY LOCAL RESOUR CE G U ID E & CO U PO N B O O K 19 www.vbsr.org/local_first_vermont @LocalFirstVT www.facebook.com/LocalFirstVT 2 0 1 6 - 2 0 17 BUY LOCAL RESOUR CE G U ID E & CO U PO N B O O K 20 2016-2017 LOCAL STORIES LO CAL STO R IES 21 LO CAL STO R IES 22 VILLANTI Villanti Printers, a third-generation, family-owned business based in Milton, Vermont, has been bringing words and images to dazzling life since 1959.
