Hi there,
My mom (cc'd) and I have some furniture that we'd like to give away to anyone that may want/need it. We have a cabin on Lake Ninevah where these pieces are currently and I can share directions/the address.
We have two sets of twin bunks beds and mattresses in great condition. They were very lightly used for 4-ish weeks a summer. We also have four dressers of varying sizes and conditions, and an outdoor grill. I have dimensions and pictures (attached) of the pieces (excluding one of the dressers).
Can you please let me know if you need anything else from me in order to share this with the listserv for pick up? We'd need them picked up any time on Thursday 8/19 or on Friday 8/20 before 12pm.
If you have any questions please feel free to email either of us, or call us. We'll be in cell phone service for most of the day today and tomorrow. Me: 802 952 8214 Suzanne: 802 952 8213

UVM Extension Community Horticulture
Annual Conference November 5 & 6, 2021
The Garden as a Place of Collaboration,
Stewardship and Connection
This year's conference will be filled with gardening inspiration for Master Gardeners and garden enthusiasts in Vermont and beyond. After a year of isolation, the stewardship of our personal and shared garden-landscapes is more critical than ever. Gardens connect people to the natural world, the plants they nurture, and the communities they live within.
This year, an amazing lineup of speakers will teach about the indigenous agricultural practices and their application in today's gardens, how mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant health, mushroom foraging, heirloom plant cultivation, food resiliency, and how to develop community connections through gardens.

Vermont Home Gardener Late Summer Garden Care
Rain or shine, our gardens are now heading into the home stretch with tomatoes and peppers leading the way! Weather has not been good for some veggies and flowers this summer, so disappointments are part of the game. Tomatoes and peppers are really sub-tropical plants and don't know that winter is coming so they are still trying to grow as though they have many months ahead. We know better and there are several things we can do right now to get the most out of this year's growing season for tomatoes and other gardening investments. Despite the calendar and shorter day lengths, there are still things to be planted for a fresh fall - early winter harvest. Late summer pests & diseases are appearing too so let's be alert.
