The Vermont State Quarter
|
The Vermont state quarter coloring page shows an image of the quarter issued in 2001 that represents the state of Vermont.
The Vermont quarter celebrates America's favorite sweet with an image of maple trees being tapped for syrup against a background of
Camel's Hump Mountain.
The first state admitted to the Union after the original 13 colonies, Vermont is known as the "Green Mountain State" because of its
beautiful mountains covered in evergreen trees. But its Maple trees are more important to most American kids. By putting a little
metal device (sort of like a water spigot) into each tree, the sap can be collected to make a delicious, brown syrup. Still a favorite with
pancake eaters across the country, it was America's biggest source of sugar until the early 1800s, when cane sugar-the kind you find in sugar
bowls now-was introduced.
