Honey Market · October 4–5, 2030 · Brattleboro, Vermont
Brattleboro — Vermont's southernmost city in Windham County at the confluence of the West River and Connecticut River — anchors a landscape of apple orchards, basswood forest, goldenrod meadows, wild blueberry fields, and second-growth hardwood forest where beekeepers harvest the distinctive honeys of the lower Connecticut River valley from the Deerfield to the White River drainages. This October market at the Brattleboro Retreat Meadows celebrates Windham County beekeeping traditions alongside the spectacular fall foliage season in southern Vermont, featuring honey from Windham, Cheshire (NH), and Franklin (MA) County producers in the tri-state Connecticut River region, guided tours of the West River valley orchard blossom and goldenrod wildflower corridor, historical presentations on Vermont's 19th-century beekeeping traditions by Brattleboro Historical Society archivists, and honey-inspired pairings with Vermont artisan cheeses, maple syrup, and apple cider. The market draws visitors from across the Connecticut River valley and the Southern Vermont arts and culture community.
