Vermont Evaporator Company gives back in a sweet way.
We believe in being a force for good in our world.
The Vermont Evaporator Company believes in supporting the people and planet that make our company possible: recognizing the contributions of Native Americans, caring for the sugar woods, and giving back locally.
Supporting Native American Land Use Rights
The original inhabitants of North America discovered how to make maple sugar, and passed on that knowledge to European immigrants. All of us who work in the maple industry benefit from this knowledge transfer on a daily basis. At the Vermont Evaporator Company, we stand with native communities who are fighting for the freedom to use the very land where they discovered maple generations ago.
Caring for Sugar Country
If it weren’t for the forests, maple syrup would not exist. We owe these “sugar woods” protection and respect. We support the following environmental organizations in their work caring for the lands and waterways on which we and our sugar woods depend.
Giving Back to Our Local Community
Where would any of us be if our local community didn’t support us? Now it’s our turn to give back! In addition to sourcing goods, services and labor as close to home as possible, we have also supported the following local environmental, arts and business organizations:
