Green Mountain Passport:

A Green Mountain Passport is a discount program for seniors and veterans with disabilities.

Holders of the passport are eligible for reduced prices on goods and services from hundreds of Vermont’s private businesses and for free admission to Vermont state parks, museums, and events which are fully state sponsored. 

Some businesses display a sign announcing that they offer Green Mountain Passport discounts.  However, not all participating businesses advertise that they offer the discount.  If you are unsure, please ask.

To be eligible for a passport, a person must be:

·        62 years of age or more or

·        Totally disabled as a result of disease or injury suffered while serving in the armed forces or

·        A resident of the Vermont Veterans Home in Bennington.

To receive a Green Mountain Passport, just fill out an application at your local Town Clerk’s Office and pay a $2.00 fee.

Hunting & Fishing Licenses

            The Town of Barre can issue resident and non-resident licenses.  A resident is a person who does now and has resided in the State of Vermont for the six months immediately prior to the date of application; and who has not, during that period, claimed residency for any purpose in any other state or country.  Exception:  for the lifetime licenses the requirement is a 12 month residency.

            A resident owner of lands in Vermont, his or her spouse, and their minor children may hunt on their lands and take fish within said lands without a license.  A nonresident has equal privileges if their Vermont lands are not posted.

            Nonresident students enrolled in college, university or secondary school within the State at which they have successfully completed two successive semesters may purchase a resident license.  They must present to the agent a certificate from the school affirming status as a student.

            Any member of the Armed Forces who is on active duty and stationed at a military base within the State of Vermont may purchase a license to hunt or fish at resident fees.  The applicant must present an official document from a commanding officer verifying the applicant’s full time military status and station within Vermont.

            Permanent Licenses for Vermont Residents 65 or older:

            Residents may pick up an application form from any agent.  Once completed the form must be returned to the Waterbury Office for processing.  For more information contact the license division at 1-802-241-3703.
