Got Bees?

Warmer weather can cause honeybee colonies to form swarms and go looking for a new home.  If you see a mass of honeybees hanging somewhere in the open like on your house, a tree or shrub, or anyplace else, this might be a swarm.  They are not aggressive and should not be disturbed or harmed.  If you call me as soon as you first see them, I will come to collect them from your property, no charge.  I am a beekeeper in Mount Holly and love to collect those homeless honeybees.  Call Jim Corven of Fenn Farmstead & Gardens at 802-259-2311. 

We have available, daily under cover at the rear entrance, book, audio books, and movies for you to take. We do not want the items back.  Staff has been busy inventorying our collection - @ 10,000 items so far – and now onto the Youth Collection. Orders have been received and there will be plenty of New items to borrow!
 
We are awaiting Governor Scott's "turning of the spigot" to reopen the library. We are not retail. Once that happens, we will be able to give you a date as to when we are re-opening. The REAR door will be the ONLY entrance. Returned items are to be placed into a box inside the door. Masks are REQUIRED to continue into the library. HAND SANITIZER will be provided and MUST be used BEFORE you exit the air lock. Social Distancing will be in place.  Certainly this will be a different library experience, but not forever.  Lastly, the book shelves will be closed to the public. Sorry, I know this is a hard one.  You may search our on-line catalog and there is a choice to look at the books on the self in a specific area. I think this will help. We are happy to speak with you to assist in any way that we can. Staff and volunteers will be available to assist you as well.
 
Be Well – Stay Safe

Vermont Home Gardener:  May Planting Notes - What Can We Plant Now?
 
We have a welcome break in the weather and early planting can begin.  Some ambitious gardeners already have put in peas, onion sets, greens, and carrots.  It's time to go ahead with early herbs & vegetables but be careful not to get ahead of the season just yet and don't work that soil if it's still very wet.  This week's issue has a list of what can be safely sown now, how to get the best germination of seeds in cool soil, and some suggestions for transplants.  Read the whole story and subscribe (Free) at  VermontHomeGardener.com

Hi Folks,
      It is that time again for another Chit Chat.  Because of the holiday I am pushing up the deadline by one day of Thursday May 21st, by 6:00 pm so please pass along to any other interested party.
      Please have all articles, announcements, advertisements and all other items you wish to be posted to me by that time and remember color photos are preferred.
      Spring has been on the cool side but the green grass with the spots of dandelion yellow here and there are a welcome sight.  Here's wishing all of you a Happy Memorial Day with thoughts and prayers for all our veterans.
Happy Memorial Day,
Diana Garrow, Editor
