Description: The Strolling of the Heifers Parade and Festival
is the Green Mountain State’s light-hearted version
of Spain’s Running of the Bulls. The four-day celebration
was created to raise public awareness of the importance of
sustaining agriculture and family-owned farms in order to
maintain Vermont's unique character, beautiful landscape and
rural way of life. Notably, the event has been named one of
Vermont’s Top Ten Summer Events by the state’s
Chamber of Commerce for the third year in a row. Equally important,
the Heifer Parade and Festival's founder Orly Munzing, was
named one of Vermont's "heroes" in the spring issue
of Vermont Life magazine.
