Getting Starting

The Vermont Foodways Digital Initiative is a combination database and digital collection of materials related to the culture and tradition of food in Vermont. Due to copyright restrictions, approximately 10% of the collection is digitized; the database provides location information (Identifier) for accessing the remaining material in the collection. The majority of the materials come from the UVM Libraries Department of Special Collections.
