SOUTHERN VERMONT - The Southern Vermont Board of Realtors collected almost $4,000, which they donated to local foodbanks. The money was distributed to Foodworks in Brattleboro, the Putney Foodshelf, the Wardsboro-Jamaica Foodbank, and the Deerfield Valley Food Pantry.
Prices for diesel, #2 home heating oil, and gasoline have risen dramatically over the last several months, causing concern for many Vermonters who depend on petroleum products for heating and to power industry.
