Orleans: We've moved to the Jones Memorial Library while we renovate

While we remodel our Orleans office, you can find us across the street at the Jones Memorial Library. Enter through the door facing the parking lot, go down the stairs, and that's where we'll be! Counter transactions are available. Due to limited office space, appointments are recommended for opening accounts or applying for loans. We apologize for the inconvenience. Until our building is finished, for a full-service experience, please visit Newport or Lyndonville.

Support Vermont farmers through Dig Deep Vermont

Over 350 Vermont family farms are still coping with the financial aftermath of last year's flooding. To support recovery efforts, Dig Deep Vermont was established by a group of volunteers working with government agencies, state associations, and business leaders. This grassroots coalition is focused on raising funds to support local Vermont family farmers, all of whom play a critical role in our communities and state. The fundraiser is organized by county so neighbors can help neighbors, while also offering a general state fund which will supplement county campaigns. Funds raised will be distributed directly to the family farms impacted by the flooding and extreme weather.

You can help! Through the end of June, NorthCountry will match up to a total of $2,000 in total donations made at any of our branches or by calling us. Learn more at the Dig Deep Vermont website or on our blog.
