ADDISON COUNTY — A group of high school students from Japan that recently visited Vermont learned not just about the cultural differences between their home country and the Green Mountain State, but also got some first-hand experience and education on how Vermonters are trying to integrate more local foods into their lives.
It was all under the Green Across the Pacific Environmental Leadership Exchange program, an international program, run by Shoreham resident Peter Lynch, which seeks to improve cultural and environmental awareness and cooperation.
