Educate & onboard
We host hands-on sessions for newcomers—covering radios, firmware, antennas, and safe deployment practices.
Vermont Meshtastic Community
Resilient, free, and decentralized communication for the Green Mountains.
Green Mountain Mesh is a volunteer-run group building a Meshtastic network across Vermont. We focus on education, collaborative deployments, and partnerships that expand coverage for everyone.
What we do
- Host and maintain long-range relay nodes
- Teach new operators how to build and deploy devices
- Coordinate with landowners for strategic placements
- Document coverage, lessons learned, and local guides

Community-led planning
Our purpose
We believe Vermont deserves a resilient, community-owned layer of communication that keeps people connected when infrastructure is limited.
Strategic placements
We work with landowners and local organizations to place nodes where they can support the widest possible coverage.
Share what we learn
Our blog captures field notes, build recipes, and Vermont-specific deployment insights.
Get involved
Whether you are brand new to Meshtastic or already running nodes, there is a place for you in the mesh.

Join a build
We share hardware kits, assemble nodes, and compare antenna setups together.
02
Host a node
Offer a rooftop, barn, or hillside to extend coverage for the community.
03
Report coverage
Share signal maps and real-world performance so we can keep refining placements.
