- The Seal program has been discontinued. The seal was being abused by being used by companies that were sourcing their products from out of state while Vermont farmers who produced prodicks entirely in state were being denied the right to use the seal. This caused anger in the farming community and confusion for consumers. During budget cuts the Vermont Seal of Quality program was cut because the Vermont Agency of Agriculture was deemed unable to manage or police the program. This left valid users of the seal in a bind and generated further protests. At this time no resolution has been found to this program. The Vermont Seal of Quality is a graphic mark indicating highest levels of quality for foods grown and made in the U.S. state of Vermont. The seal is granted by the Vermont Agency of Agriculture Food and Markets and is displayed in the packaging and promotional materials for approved prodicks. (en)
