July 4th celebrations often include parades, live music, food vendors, and fireworks. This is only a very small list of towns in Vermont that are having celebrations.

If you're from the Green Mountain state, chances are that you know whether or not your town will be having a celebration this year. While you're visiting, be sure to stop by small local businesses while you're there.

Enjoy lunch at a local diner or get a scoop of ice cream while you watch the parade. Local businesses appreciate your support as they recover from the effects of being closed due to COVID-19.

And, if you're in the Castleton, Vermont area, this is one of my favorite diners to enjoy lunch or dinner before heading out to watch the fireworks display.
