Moosefest is where dozens of moose art sculptures appear around town. Orvis Company in Manchester was founded in 1856 - they still create legendary fly rods. Learn to handle hawks at The British School of Falconry. Vermont Teddy Bear Company produces the only teddy bear still made in the United States. Artist Max Osorio creates art using his chainsaw like a chisel. Tour cider making at Cold Hollow Cider Company. Spiritual life and music are priorities of the Benedictine monks at Weston Priory. Community of Derby Line has several buildings that straddle border with Canada. Knights Spider Web farm is original "web site" where art is made using spider webs. Fine granite comes from mountains in Vermont at Rock of Ages Granite Quarry in Barre - a local cemetery is a showplace. Every Halloween, Ellie's Farm Market puts on roadside display with 1000 carved pumpkins. "

5.0 out of 5 stars A full color, sixty minute, highly informative and entertaining DVD documentary, December 8, 2006
This review is from: Discoveries...America, Vermont (DVD)
Vermont is one of the small New England states that is known to the general public primarily for its Maple Syrup and Fall Colors when the tree leaves turn from green to gold, yellow, and red. "Discoveries America: Vermont" is a full color, sixty minute, highly informative and entertaining DVD documentary that showcases a great more characteristics and history of this north eastern state which has long been a bastion of individualism and patriotism. It once had more than 600 bridges, a legacy honored by the Covered Bridge Museum in Bennington. It is the home of the Moosefest where dozens of moos art sculptures appear around a small Vermont town. Then there is the Teddy Bear Company which is the only United States based manufacturer still making teddy bears for children. In this superbly presented travelog, viewers will also be treated to a visit to the Cold Hollow Cider Company and the cider making process, the Benedictine monks at the Weston Pirory and their music, the Knights Spider Web farm where real spider webs are employed in the creation of art, and so much more. Also very highly recommended for community library collections is another new release in the Bennett Watt Entertainment travelog documentary series: Discover America: Maine.

This review is from: Discoveries...America, Vermont (DVD)
Where's the beef? A very brief travelog with nothing you have not seen before. A total waste of time and money.
