AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Paraquat Ban: Vermont became the first U.S. state to ban paraquat, a weed killer linked by lawmakers to Parkinson’s disease, with advocates calling it a major shift even as some farmers warn about profit pressure and the EPA is still reviewing safety. Public Health & Outdoors: With tick season underway, health experts urge Vermonters to take prevention seriously after CDC reports tick-related ER visits at their highest level in at least a decade, and local guidance emphasizes awareness over panic. Clean Water Planning: The Vermont DEC is seeking public comment on a draft Tactical Basin Plan for the Batten Kill, Walloomsac, and Hoosic River Basin, laying out 30 restoration and protection actions and holding a hybrid meeting in mid-July. Local Community & Pride: Vermont Wild is set to celebrate Pride on Saturday, June 27, with music, food, and community-focused events at Applejack Stadium. Sports Development: The Vermont Soccer Association and Propel Pro launched a new Vermont Development Program to expand structured training opportunities statewide, from no-cost team options to advanced coaching.
