This is a reminder that the Ludlow Mount Holly School Board meeting is tomorrow (Monday, December 22) from 6:00–8:00 p.m. at Mount Holly School and via Zoom. We will be discussing possible ways to bring the school budget back below the state-allowed threshold. Possible considerations that may be discussed include: - Closing one of the elementary schools
- Reconfiguring grade levels across buildings, such as:
- One school serving PreK–2 and the other Grades 3–6
- One school serving PreK–4 and the other Grades 5–7 or 8
We hope you can join us—your questions and input matter as we work through these options together. https://trsu.zoom.us/j/86343570047

THANK YOU: The Museum Board sends a hearty thank you for the generosity of the many area merchants, local talented artisans and to Community members who gave lovely items for the Festival of Lights. It was a successful event! We are grateful also for the wonderful support from our town Community coming to share in the spirit of the evening! Your presence and generosity makes for a successful event, and in turn the Museum continues to enrich Mount Holly living! We all are in this together. FUNDRAISER and REMINDER: As the year closes we want to remind you there is still time to contribute to the Blacksmith Fundraising Project, repairing and preserving the Blacksmith Shop. We are 25% on our way to completing the final goal of $150,000.00. The restoration work will begin next Spring once the ground is thawed. The Museum is a 501c3 non-profit organization. Contributions qualify for a tax deduction. Another method for a tax free donation is through a qualified charitable distribution from your IRA. Please keep the Blacksmith Fundraiser in your sights as you complete your end of year giving! Happy Holidays and a healthy New Year! .

| | | | It's Friday and here we are winding down the 2025 season. We've got a very warm and windy day here at the farm, with temperatures expected to drop tonight. Our farm stand will be open through the weekend for all of your shopping needs. Whether you're looking for holiday gifts, or grabbing some meat, we'll be here and ready to help. Please note, our farm stand will be closed next week Monday through Thursday, opening back up on Friday. Plan your shopping accordingly. We are still collecting monetary donations for the Reading Food Shelf and will do so through the weekend. Plew Farm will match a dozen eggs for every $6.00 collected. Need some kindling for starting your wood stove? The grandkids have a few bags of kindling all packed and ready. Stop by the farm stand and take a look. We will have fresh bread and baked goodies on Saturday. Millicent dropped off her famous hand made sourdough English muffins yesterday, so we are fully stocked! As we will be closed most of next week, we will be offering our egg special this weekend. Buy 2 dozen, get 1 dozen free. Just in time for the weekend baking! Beef, pork, and chicken. All raised right here on our farm. Can't get anymore local than that! We look forward to seeing you at the farm stand this weekend. We thank you for shopping local. Located at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly. Farm stand hours are 12:00-5:00.

• Now through Thursday: current hours (11am-6pm)
• Starting Friday, 12/19-12/23: 10am–7pm daily On Christmas Eve,12/24, we will be open 10am-3pm.

| | | | |  | | HAZEL IS HOME! Thanks to all for your concern and support. With help from a thermal imaging drone and tracks near a camp structure, Hazel was found sheltering underneath. After being coaxed out into the open with food (yes, bacon!) she was safely returned home - cold, tired and hungry. She sustained no injuries during her 48+ hour adventure. | | | | | | |
