The Town of Jericho:

This might be one of the few Chittenden County towns that spawned a world-famous artist: Native son Wilson "Snowflake" Bentley photographed crystals of precipitation in the late 1800s. Jericho's other great claim to fame is the rustic grist mill, circa 1850, that is designated as a National Historic Site. At 22,656 acres, the village is quickly evolving from a farming enclave with a skyline of white church spires. Despite rapid population growth, Jericho still prides itself on the kind of hometown friendliness that prompted Snowflake Bentley to pursue another favorite photographic subject: He used his camera to capture people's smiles.
