The High Meadows Fund promotes a healthy natural environment while encouraging long-term economic vitality in Vermont.

We support leadership and innovation through grantmaking in three primary areas:

• Reduction of reliance on fossil fuels by encouraging energy efficiency and renewable energy;
• Improvement of the sustainability and viability of agricultural enterprise and food security and affordability;
• Encouragement of vibrant compact settlements surrounded by working farms and forests.

This web portal provides an introduction to our mission and approach to grantmaking in Vermont.         It also represents a way for us to share with others what we have learned from our grantmaking and from the many Vermonters who work towards goals that complement ours.  

We invite you to contact us if you would like more information about our work or if you would like to suggest a report or reference to include under "Learning Resources."
