VERMONT

Vermont was the first state admitted to the union after the original thirteen colonies, joining in 1791, and its constitution was the first in the United States to prohibit slavery and grant universal male suffrage regardless of property ownership. Its visitor draws center largely on its remarkably preserved 19th century rural landscape, including covered bridges, white-steepled village greens, and a working agricultural tradition tied to dairy farming and maple syrup production that has made it one of the most visited states in New England during both fall foliage season and winter.
