Title
The Vermont Country Store
Description
The Vermont Country Store was founded by my parents, Vrest and Ellen Orton. My Dad had clear memories of growing up in the general store owned by my Grandfather, Gardner Lyman Orton, in North Calais, Vermont, which was started the year my Dad was born in 1897. Those memories resulted in our first catalogue consisting of 12 pages and 36 items, printed in our garage print shop and mailed to my parents' Christmas card list in late 1945.
The store opened in the spring of 1946 and to everyone's amazement people found their way along dirt roads to the small village of Weston, population 475 at that time. Weston has now grown to almost 600 people
The business was greatly aided by a full-length article in the 1952 Saturday Evening Post, entitled "The Happy Storekeeper of the Green Mountains". There was hardly a soul in America who did not read the Post in those days.

To whom it may interest: I have been looking for malteen (I think it malted) cod liver oil, my mother used to give it to us when we were children. I have been able to get cod liver oil, but maltene cod liver was delicious & a great way to get younger children & adults to take this valuable vitamin. Is it possible they will make it again. Please advise.
