Happy Friday, friends — the weekend is officially yours! Any fun plans? If shopping local is on the list, we'd love to see you. Here's what's waiting at the farm stand this weekend: Whiskey Barrel Garden Planters are here! From bourbon barrel-aged maple syrup... to your garden. These beauties have lived quite the life — first giving our syrup that rich, smoky depth, and now ready to add serious charm to your outdoor space. Come see them for yourself! Bagged Mulch Hay is back! Hand-packed bags, just like always — by Jackson & Dominic, who've been at it since 2021. Grab a bag (or three!) for mulching small areas. So much better when you know exactly who packed it. We've also got bales of mulch hay for those bigger jobs. Cool weekend = perfect slow cooker dinner. Don't put that slow cooker away! We've got briskets, round roasts, and chuck roasts ready to go. Stop by and we'll help you pick the perfect one. The sweet stuff — fully stocked and ready for you! Wood-fired, award-winning maple syrup, maple cream, almonds, maple sugar, maple candy... the shelves are full. Treat yourself (or stock up for gifting — no judgment!). Baked goods arrive Saturday — and they GO FAST. Fresh bread, delicious treats — shop earlier rather than later if you want in on the good stuff! From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for choosing local. We don't take a single one of you for granted. You are truly why we do what we do. Come see us! Open Wednesday–Sunday, 12–5. 📍 1966 Healdville Road, Mount Holly, VT |

I'm looking for a solid wood bookshelf that is not too big and not too small for the textbooks in my office. To be just right, it needs to have at least 3 shelves, with the height between shelves at least 11 inches. The unit needs to be shorter than 52 inches, at least 30 inches wide, and 11 inches deep. Happy to pay a modest amount (less than $80).
Please contact me by email: diannej27@gmail.com or text me at: 802-999-4297. I do not answer phone calls from unknown numbers.

THE REAL BETSY ROSS Since there is no evidence of a "first" flag, the claim that Betsy Ross made the first American flag is a moot point. However, was her contribution to the flag the five pointed star?
Whether she did or didn't contribute to the American flag, Ross deserves to be known in her own right, not only as a flag maker but also for her role in the Free Quaker movement, as a "wise woman" (healer); a business woman who launched a successful business that lasted for well over 50 years; and as a rebel in the American Revolution. In celebration of Flag Day, the Cavendish Historical Society (CHS) will be holding a talk on Betsy Ross June 14th, 2 pm at the Cavendish Stone Church, 2295 Main Street. This is a good opportunity to see inside this church built in 1844, as well as learn about the amazing life of Ross, and have an opportunity to make a five pointed star in one snip.
This program is free and open to the public. For more information, e-mail margocaulfield@icloud.com or call 802-226-7807.
