Jericho is a rugged mountain town beside Burlington
Jericho appeals for its stock of secluded homes and rural atmosphere among Vermont's Green Mountains while being commuter-friendly to major employers around Burlington. Residents appreciate the community's access to highly ranked public schools, parks and regional attractions like Stowe Mountain Resort. Due to the snowy, mountainous environment, Jericho also hosts the Camp Ethan Allen Training Site, an army training center for mountaineering and long-distance sharpshooting.
Hiking and skiing in the Green Mountains
Mobbs Farm is a privately owned park with forested hiking and horseback riding trails. Cross-country skiing is available in winter, and deer hunting is popular in appropriate seasons. Smugglers Notch is a pass in the Green Mountains, several miles east of town, popular for its ski resorts and picturesque hiking trails. Locals can explore the woods along Sterling Pond Trail or head south to ski and golf at Stowe Mountain Resort, a large regional attraction.

Jericho Farmers Market teaches kids business skills
The Jericho Farmers Market runs on Thursday afternoons from May to October and offers numerous local vendors selling fresh produce, meats and other farm goods. The farmers' market also hosts Kids Day, a one-time event during the market season where children in town can experience vending and sell handmade crafts and lemonade from stands.
Country homes on spacious land
Jericho's single-family homes range from $300,000 to $1.2 million, varying by square footage and lot size. Buyers can find open-porch farmhouses, ramblers and Colonial Revivals on expansive multi-acre lots along winding mountain roads. "The land lots are a big draw for residents who want to build chicken coops, and some homeowners do small hobby farming and gardening," says Amanda Gerlack, a lifelong Vermonter and listing and selling partner with Nancy Jenkins Real Estate. Residents who live close to Camp Ethan Allen might hear occasional noise from the base, as there is an active firing range on site.
Rambler homes in Jericho typically feature stone accents and garage.

Camp Ethan Allen is occasionally opened to the public for tours or to use the base's long-distance firing range.

Commute to Burlington in half an hour
Due to Jericho's spacious, secluded homes and rural environment, residents tend to be car-dependent. "Some folks live in Jericho and work around Burlington, though work-from-home is also popular for residents," says Gerlack. "Essex is another town nearby where people tend to work." Commuters can take either Route 15 or Interstate 89, just 14 miles west, to reach Burlington for work or leisure. Burlington International Airport is 15 miles from home and offers domestic flights.
