Agility is BIG in New England. Know of an agility facility in Brattelboro and there's a GREAT dog training facility in New Hampshire (All Dogs Gym), I suspect people at either facility may be able to point you to things closer to home. There's also another big agility facility right outside of Albany New York.
As for earthdog, I don't know of anything in VT specifically but I do know there are active clubs in Mass and CT and people at these clubs might know of things further up the coastline! Here are some New England contacts you could try:

If nothing else, you could always contact the AKC and the American Working Terrier Association directly and get contacts through them.
