This recipe is one that we've had in our recipe collection, but one that I haven't made in awhile. It takes a few minutes to prepare, but trust me it is worth every bit of prep time. Slow-Cooked Maple Cider Brisket. Slow cooked in your oven for 3-4 hours. It smells amazing too! We served ours with mashed potatoes and asparagus. I've had it with egg noodles as well. And the leftover brisket, will make some incredible sandwiches. Go on, give it a try! Mark your calendars! Our annual Maple Open House Weekend is coming up. Saturday and Sunday, March 21st & 22nd. Tour our sugar house, watch us boil (weather permitting), meet the crew, and sample the sweet stuff! As always, you can visit and shop our website for all your maple needs. Syrup, almonds, candy, cream, and sugar. Bring a taste of Vermont into your home. You shop, we'll ship. | |

| | | | | HANNAH LOVELL & THE ROLE OF WOMEN IN THE AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR
Without women, the Revolutionary War would not have been won. Often overlooked in history books, which tend to focus on battles and men, women were responsible for running the boycotts, serving the quarter master function in camps, nursing, manning cannons, spying and much more. Not only did women influence the outcome of the war, it set the stage for women to begin liberating themselves over the coming centuries legally, economically and from patriarchal control.
On Saturday March 14, at 1 pm at the Cavendish Library in Proctorsville, the Cavendish Historical Society (CHS) will hold a talk on Hannah Lovell and the role of women in the Revolutionary War. Lovell, who carried messages during the war, is the only woman in the Cavendish cemeteries with acknowledgment as a "patriot" on her grave stone and a Revolutionary War flag holder. However, she was far from the only female patriot. This event will include showing excerpts from Ken Burns American Revolution series, as well a "Liberty Tea" party featuring the drinks of the era-special tea, coffee and hot chocolate.
This event is free, open to the public and recommended for those 12 and up. In the event of inclement weather, changes will be posted to www.facebook.com/cavendishvt by 10 am. For more information call 802-226-7807 or email margocaulfield@icloud.com | | |
