Agri-Mark Annual Meeting

Congratulations to Agri-Mark, which held its 28th annual meeting in Burlington on April 10-11. At the left is Gov. Jim Douglas addressing the members and guests.

The winner of Agri-Mark's top milk quality award was Dimock Farms LLC of Peru, NY. Congratulations to Don, Martha and Bruce!

One of the interesting presentations was about sustainability. Some of Agri-Mark's customers have asked it: What are you doing about sustainability? As a result, Agri-Mark is working with the Manomet Center for Conservation Sciences to develop a science-based sustainability "scorecard" that can be used to evaluate the things that Agri-Mark members do to promote sustainability. Agri-Mark members can expect to hear more about this over the next few months.
