“Strolling of the Heifers”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The celebration was founded in 2002, with a focus on sustainable agriculture in the region.^[1] The parade was inspired by the Running of the Bulls, but instead of enraged bulls, groomed heifers are walked down the main street.^[6]

Senator Bernie Sanders attends the parade nearly every year,^[7]^[8] and has been credited with inspiring the parade by founder Orly Munzing.^[9]

Other programs

Strolling of the Heifers has expanded from just running a parade, to also include small business development programs and local food advocacy programs.^[10] For example, they ran a culinary skills program for training the local workforce.^[11] The organization also publishes its annual Locavore Index, which rates the capacity of different states for providing local food.^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]

The Strolling of the Heifers owns The River Garden, a building in downtown Brattleboro.^[12]
