A. Johnson Company is closed
As of the end of the December 2023, the A. Johnson (lumber) Company in Bristol, Vermont is closed. There's almost nothing online about this so I won't try to provide a link at this time (see the comments). If today's date were April 1st, I would wonder if this might be an April Fool's joke. If A. Johnson is closed, that's a Very Big Deal since they own many acres of forested land throughout the state.
Does anybody know more?

No, this is news to me.
An official page that describes the history of the A. Johnson Company says "The A. Johnson Co., LLC permanently closed the lumber mill and the retail business at the end of 2023." No further details are given.

That's a very positive statement about continuing to practice careful land stewardship on their remaining lands, "long into the future."
According to a letter-to-the-editor published in the Addison Independent on October 26, 2023, the A. Johnson Company owns the logging rights on Snake Mountain, and so last year's logging operation that caused so much damage on Snake Mountain is attributable to them.

Bristol lumber mill hurt by changing times
As before, it is nice to see that this article also mentions the owners' commitment to practicing sustainable forestry on their remaining forest lands.
