Embraced by mountains on the east and the west, Bennington County anchors the southwestern corner of Vermont. It stands an hour east of Albany and equidistant from New York, Boston, and Montreal; yet it's a world away.
Postcard scenery and sophisticated cultural and educational institutions stand side by side. Modern manufacturing and old-time craftsmanship cross-pollinate. With an unusual combination of independent spirit and community involvement the "indomitable people" of Bennington County make both a living and a life here in the Green Mountain State.
