Front Porch Forum operates regional networks of online neighborhood forums that help neighbors connect and cultivate community across Vermont and dozens of surrounding states. The platform enables residents to share items, request help, recommend services, discuss local matters, and report incidents, with each post tied to a clearly identified nearby neighbor to foster trust. In many towns, participation runs high, with a substantial share of households engaging daily, contributing to a stronger sense of place. The company is based in Burlington, Vermont, and sits within the technology, information and internet sector, offering a platform focused on local, community-driven conversations. Its reach includes every Vermont community and dozens in neighboring states, and in May 2026 it joined a regional collaboration with Local Motion and partner organizations.
