Town of Goshen

Goshen is a small mountain community nestled in the heart of the Vermont’s Green Mountain National Forest. Chartered in 1792, Goshen has a rich history, and its generational heritage runs deep. The folks who call Goshen home tend to be independent minded, hard-working, and typically possess an adventurous spirit and unusual self-gratification for their choice in settling in this rugged place.

The mountains are full of wildlife, hiking and x-country & backwoods downhill skiing, and snowmobiling trails.  Goshen was named the Wild Blueberry Capital of Vermont by the Legislature, and on any given day in August you can find locals and visitors, bucket in hand, picking wild blueberries at the Blueberry Management Area on Hogback Mountain.
