SUMMARY:Mow Crew
DESCRIPTION:Mow some grass\, earn your pass! Mow crew is the best way to get an intimate look at all of the nooks and crannies of Stark Mountain\, burn some calories and make new ski buddies. At the end of the 10 days of work you’ll have earned some cash for your pocket and a full season’s pass for the upcoming winter. \nA little run down on how we mow our trails… We use hand scythes to cut the grass\, ferns and shrubs on the steepest slopes here at Mad River Glen. Most of the beginner and intermediate terrain is mowed with a tractor\, mow crew steps in to finish off the areas the tractor can’t go. We mow and move in a line shoulder-to-shoulder hiking up the trails as we go. It can be tough work but the camaraderie makes it so much fun! Truly\, it is rewarding and at the end of the 10 days\, you’ll have a full season ski pass and some cash in your pocket. Not only that but you will likely have learned something about the terrain you didn’t already know and you’ll have gained a couple of new ski buddies. \nThe day begins at 7:00 am and we mow until about 3:00 pm with many short breaks in between. A backpack with a hydration pack is highly recommended and you should also pack yourself enough food to get you through the day. There will be water stations along the route to refill your containers and likely a ride down on the chairlift at the end of the day to ease the knees. Most people wear pants and long sleeves to fend off bugs and protect them from the sun but a few hardy folks go shorts and tees\, everyone wears hiking boots – no exceptions. We will provide the scythe\, a pair of work gloves\, a sharpening stone/tools and water. \nIf you’re interested in joining the mow crew this fall please send an email to ry@madriverglen.com.

SUMMARY:Waitsfield Farmer's Market
DESCRIPTION:We’re a unique collective of Vermont farmers\, makers\, bakers\, and shakers in the heart of the Mad River Valley.  \nEstablished in 1993\, the Waitsfield Farmer’s Market has been a meeting place for those who appreciate Vermont farmers and artisans for decades. Our market vendors are a carefully curated group of local Vermont businesses that provide the highest quality products to the market. Every Saturday\, rain or shine\, mid-May to mid-October\, you’ll find us on the Mad River Green! \nLocal produce\, plant starts\, maple\, honey\, flowers\, seedlings\, eggs\, meats\, cheeses\, fish\, crafts\, art\, clothes\, bread\, baked goods\, coffee\, spirits\, cider\, mead and prepared foods all by Vermonters. Every Saturday there is live entertainment. Visitors are welcome to bring their pets on leash. \nOur market is proud to offer many food benefit options for our community\, learn more about them below! \n3 Squares VT / SNAP \nThe Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) offers nutrition assistance to millions of eligible\, low-income individuals and families and provides economic benefits to communities. In fact\, SNAP is the largest program in the domestic hunger safety net. The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) works with key stakeholders in every state to ensure that those eligible for nutrition assistance can make informed decisions about applying for the program and can access benefits. \nFarm to Family\nFarm to Family is a program funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

SUMMARY:Siptemberfest 2026
DESCRIPTION:STARK’S PUB WILL BE CLOSED ON SATURDAY\, SEPTEMBER 19TH FOR SIPTEMBERFEST.  \nBack in 2008\, three folks who really like beer\, really like festivals and really like Mad River Glen\, decided we wanted to bring the fun of a beer fest back to the Valley and that the only way it was going to happen was if we pulled up our bootstraps and did it ourselves! \nAlthough Siptemberfest has grown over the years it is still the greatest little beer festival in the state of Vermont. There are still only around 24 brewers and roughly 800 tickets for sale\, making it the Best Little Beer Fest in Vermont. For more information check out the official SIPtemberfest website.
