Long trail/ organic resupplies

imported
#1

hey all. can anyone recommend to me a list of towns along the LT where resupllies are rather abundant for the organically crazed like myself? any beta that you can provide is welcomed. (likewise, any towns that claim to have substantial resups in this capacity but are less than perfect). i appreciate it. peace! leslie

I went nuts at my local co-op and posted the good stuff to myself along the way. For me it was the only way to be sure i’d eat good, organic food. Having said that, i’ll bet there are some organic grocers along the way.

Good luck whichever you decide.

Cheers

Knowing some of the towns near the L.T I have an idea you should check out Manchester/Manchester Center,maybe Rutland,Waitsfield,probable Middlebury (hip college there).
Most of these are a ways off the trail but you shouldnt have a problem hitching.If you go to Middlebury,check out Mr.Ups for great homemade soup.Peace :boy

Leslie:I did a little research after my last post.Here are some possible resupply points.Can’t vouch for most of them,you will have to contact them and ask what they have.

Rutland:Rutland Area Co-op.77 Wales St.Rutland 05738 802-773-0737.
Bristol:Bristol Market 28 North St.05443 802-453-2448 May be hard to hitch to,rather rural area.
Middlebury:Middlebury Coopertive.1 Wahington St.05753 802-388-7276 Dont forget Mr Ups AND Soup.! Also in Middlebury:American Flatbread.“Natural Pizza”
Waitsfield:Sweet Pea Natural Foods.Village Square,Rt 100 802-496-7763

My husband and I did the LT last September. I agree with Cheers and would advise that you mail yourself most any specific organic foods that you would desire. Most of the towns were pretty spread out and it might be difficult to find any organic shops on foot.
