As one of a community of very small mountain towns, the Town of Landgrove is aligned in public emergency services with the Town of Londonderry, with mutual aid service also provided by the Towns of Peru and Weston. A lot of emergency information is available from the State of Vermont and the National Weather Service, with alerts available when you sign up and opt-in to them.
