Vermont dairy farms face milk plant closures

Vermont's longstanding dairy industry faces significant challenges as several local processing plants close or shut down, impacting nearly 100 jobs at Franklin Foods and similar layoffs elsewhere. These closures, driven by corporate decisions and higher operational costs, threaten the local dairy economy and raise fears of farm consolidations and land development. Some local operators, like Franklin County Cheese, aim to reopen and pivot to niche products, while industry advocates call for government support to sustain and grow Vermont’s dairy presence amid broader industry growth nationwide.
