New Publication Celebrates American Made Children's Products

Maple Landmark one of many Vermont companies featured in "Made Here, Baby!"

Middlebury, VT—"The Essential Guide to Finding the Best American-Made Products for Your Kids, Made Here, Baby!" by Bruce H. Wolk is a comprehensive list of over 400 American manufacturers of children's products. This special resource guide is important "as a parent, you would do anything to keep your children free from harm. So you want to be sure that the toys you buy for them are fun, well made, and above all-safe. Recent recalls of millions of imported toys have caused parents to be more and more concerned about products that are manufactured overseas-the materials that go into them", states Wolk.

Maple Landmark's appearance in the Wolk's book is no accident. "Having been in business for over 30 years, we have always had a focus on quality and safety," said Mike Rainville, founder and owner of Maple Landmark. Rainville went on to say that "we not only strive for high quality products that meet our customers demands, (Schoolhouse Naturals line is the perfect example of this) but we also strive for a work environment that is safe and inviting for our employees."

Other Vermont manufacturing companies highlighted in Wolk's book are Vermont Teddy Bear, Green Mountain Blocks, Mad River Rocket Sled Company, and Johnson Woolen Mills to name a few.
