Vermont Seal of Quality

Vermont Seal of Quality

The Vermont Seal of Quality is a graphic mark indicating highest levels of quality for foods grown and made in the U.S. state of Vermont. The seal is granted by the Vermont Agency of Agriculture Food and Markets and is displayed in the packaging and promotional materials for approved products.

Design

The Vermont Seal of Quality takes the form of a horizontal ellipse shape with the word Vermont featured prominentally in green Palatino Italic type. The left stroke of the V of Vermont serves as a stem supporting a leaf and flower of the Red Clover ("Trifolium pratense") Vermont's state flower. The words "SEAL OF QUALITY" appear above the state name in the typeface Goudy Old Style. The agency name appears below the state name Vermont in medium gray, set in uppercase Futura Condensed, a sans-serif typeface.

Variants

Several variants of the Seal of Quality exist: the seal alone, the seal with a green ribbon and the passage COMMISSIONER'S CHOICE, the seal with the passage AGRICULTURAL PARTNER, the seal with the passage FARM HERITAGE PARTNER, and the seal with the pasage VALUE-ADDED PRODUCT.
