This is stuff on my hit list when I'm in Vermont:

• Hill Farmstead Brewery
• Parker Pie (near HF) for pizza / bottles; they have a great tap list
• Willys Store in Greensboro for HF bottles and Jasper Hill cheeses (Moses Sleeper, Cabot Clothbound, Alpha Tolman, Harbison, … )
• There's a roadside pie shop right outside of Elmore State Park
• Lost Nation brewery in Morristown (lunch, taps)
• Alchemist in Stowe (the new place)
• Doc Ponds in Stowe for eats + good taps + good bottles
• The Bench in Stowe (same)

My hope/mild-expectation for Trudeau's financial package press conference tomorrow:

• unenforceable requirement that everyone must stay home except to get food, medicine, necessary supplies
• all offices/churches/gyms/etc. with more than 5 people must close. Everyone (except essential services including grocery and pharmacy) encouraged to close, if more than 1.
• no gatherings of more than 10 people (current recommendation: 50)
• all restaurants, bars, coffee shops, etc., must do delivery/pickup only; can’t have more than 10 people working
• fed tax deadline pushed back to June 1 (filing) + July 31 (payment) (Quebec already did this)
• shortened EI timeline, waiver of waiting period, special circumstances to allow easier qualification, added resources to administer this
• mortgage holiday until May 1
• immediate stimulus cheques going out; maybe up to $1000 (everyone); treated as a tax credit
• federal corporate tax cut for small business, more coming from provinces
