Legal War on Farmers? Vermont Supreme Court Opens Floodgates: Farms Now at Risk! As a Man Thinketh on Yanasa TV analyzes recent Vermont Supreme Court decisions and their cascading impact on small farmers and homesteaders. The host warns that these rulings may allow municipalities to override state-level right-to-farm protections, threatening the very agrarian identity of Vermont. Three cases are discussed: a duck and cannabis grower in Essex Junction, a livestock farmer in Barton, and a 600-acre farm building a store in Hartland.

Municipal zoning can now override right-to-farm laws—unless connected to RAPs. Small farms and homesteaders are vulnerable; large farms still protected if politically aligned. Aesthetic-driven urbanites are reshaping policy, often at odds with traditional agriculture. Legal doctrines like “non-conforming use” and “laches” may provide defenses—but only for those aware and able to fight. Join this channel and support our efforts:    / @yanasatv
