Thanks for Helping Us Choose Our Summer Cover
We asked our Facebook fans to help us choose our Summer 2012 cover, and we were delighted with how many votes were cast! We went with your recommendation, this sweet and vivid photo of farmer Mark Fasching and his daughter, Hazel, tending to crops at Barber Farm (photographed by Daria Bishop). The choice was between the photo above or an action shot featuring a boy on a rope swing headed into a lake. More than 100 people cast votes for the farmer and daughter, and weighed in with thoughtful comments. Carolyn Davis Satre wrote, "Love it! I have a feeling this baby won't grow up to be a kid who stays inside playing video games all day!" And Alice Ennis commented, "This photo is Vermont and it is life in Vermont (survival, growth, rebirth, planning, responsibility, nurturing). This is definitely your cover photo." Make sure you are our fan on Facebook for future opportunities to have a say in your favorite magazine. Click here and like us! Take 5
