The Most Costly Journey: Vermont Reads 2022

“The Most Costly Journey” is the Vermont Reads book from July 2022 through June 2023. It’s an anthology of comics that depict the oral histories of migrant workers who have traveled from southern Mexico and Central America to work on Vermont farms.

The Most Costly Journey had its genesis at The Open Door Clinic in Middlebury, a free health clinic that serves people who do not have health insurance, and those who are underinsured. About half of the clinic’s patients are agricultural immigrant workers.

Vermont Reads is Vermont Humanities' statewide, one-book reading program. Throughout the year, communities will host programs related to the book’s themes.
