A Champion of the Maple Syrup Industry: The First 100 Years of the G.H. Grimm Company-April 23, 2025

This presentation traces the origins and evolution of the G.H. Grimm maple syrup equipment company. Over its first one hundred years, the Grimm Company, with its signature Champion Evaporator, became the leading manufacturer of maple industry equipment in the United States and Canada. The storyline of the presentation follows the Grimm family and the Grimm Company from its start in Hudson, Ohio, to its relocation and settlement in Rutland, Vermont, and on to the opening of its branch operation to Montreal, Québec. New research presents a detailed look at the lives of the Grimm family in Ohio and Vermont and the impact of the Grimm Company in the history of the maple syrup industry.

“Ethan Allen in Castleton” is a 250th anniversary event.
Three weeks after the war began between the American colonies and Great Britain, patriots from New England quietly prepared to seize British forts, which overlook Lake Champlain, in order to take cannon away from enemy strongholds. A council of war, held in Castleton several hours before the first of two forts were liberated, was the gathering where Ethan Allen was chosen to lead the expedition and where he sent Samuel Herrick to Whitehall (then Skenesborough) New York and where he dispatched Major Beach to alert patriot men of the need to gather in Shoreham and then take control of Ticonderoga and Crown Point. In 1925, 1953, and 1975, this 1775 historical event was celebrated, so now volunteers have produced a 250th anniversary celebration for this generation of Vermonters and Americans.
