Every Vermont farm sale on a map
Every price here is a recorded sale: what the state's transfer record says was paid once the sale closed. Auction sales count once recorded. Asking prices and auction bids that did not close are never shown.
Sources and terms
Every state
A sale is listed when it carries a price and acres and a whole interest changed hands in a normal sale: gifts, family and related-party sales, quit claims, foreclosures and the like are left out, the same rule as Field Scout and the Farmland Atlas. Township and town are where the state places the sale; no parcel is pinned. None of this is an appraisal.
Names
Buyer and seller names are public record on the state's transfer return. They load only when you tap, and are not shown to search engines. If one is yours and you want it off this site, tap Remove my name beside it.
Vermont
Vermont Department of Taxes, property transfer tax returns (published by VCGI), farm, forest and current use land, read Nov 3, 2026. A farm sale is a return where the land's use before or after the sale is an operating farm or timberland, or open land enrolled in current use. Left out: a buyer related to the seller, a return that claims a transfer tax exemption, transfers without pay, by divorce or by foreclosure, and part interests such as a share, a life estate, a lease or an easement.
