Sage Jewelry is a "MUST STOP" in Vermont. Sage Jewelry & Gifts is a gem! Off to the side of the green on a small alley, it is a treasure trove of gorgeous hand-crafted silver and gold jewelry (all made by the owner), slate and wood tiles and gifts, glass, cards and other decor. Almost everything is made in Vermont; and would fit anywhere! I will definitely be coming back and will likely order online even before then! What a wonderful shop!

I go to Knit Knite every Thursday from 5-8pm and love meeting all of the people who join this free event each week. The ladies who host the event are kind and helpful. The other patrons are always helpful as well. I have learned how to spin recently at the shop and the ladies helped me fix and old wheel I was given. The selection of craft items and generous spirit of the shop cannot be beat! This is a must stop for anyone traveling in the area.

10. Lost Mine Hiking Trail

Loved this trail for a great, relaxing family walk. Trail was mostly snow-covered on this day and microspikes were helpful. It is well-marked with red blazes and yellow signs, easy to stay on the trail. Some great views of Mt. Ascutney and other surrounding mountains. A few steep sections. Worth a visit!
