The Lost Dog has not been found or spotted. PLEASE keep your eyes open. In this heat she may be under a porch, in a barn or in a garage.
This dog is not familiar with our area. She was last seen at the Mechanicsville Cemetary at 9:30 am July 1. She is a newly rescued dog. She should not be chased as she is VERY fearful of people. If you see her call this number 802-357-3755 ASAP.
If you have a trail cams and could set it up near the Mechanicsville Cemetery or anywhere along Belmont road up to Teer Road or near the top of Healdsville Road.

Happy Friday and welcome to the start of a wonderful holiday weekend!

It's been a super warm weather week here at the farm. The animals are in shaded pastures with plenty of fresh grass and fresh water to carry them through the day and evenings.

Now onto our air-conditioned farm stand!

Grill Night Essentials
Seems like this will be the perfect weekend for your grills, am I right? And what goes better on a 4th of July weekend than chicken on said grill? Well, lucky for you, we've got FRESH chicken available this weekend in the farm stand — just in time for your holiday BBQ.

Don't forget our ground beef makes the most delicious burgers. Top with some Crowley Cheese, and you'll be set.

Breakfast Sorted
We've got maple syrup, eggs, pancake mix, and English muffins to get your mornings off to a great start. Oh, and don't forget to grab a bag of Abracadabra's coffee beans.

Beat the Heat
Grab a pint or two of Wilcox ice cream, or even an 802 bar, from the fridge. So many flavors to choose from.

Easy Dinner Win
Goodman's take-and-bake pizzas are a real treat for those of us who don't want to heat up the kitchen! Only 10 minutes and dinner is on the table.

We look forward to seeing you this weekend!

Mount Holly Celebrates 250 Years of Independence!

July 4, 2026

Come celebrate with a visit to the Mount Holly Community Historical Museum. We will be open from 10:00AM-1:00PM. Come and see how the Mount Holly Community has supported and lived out the spirit of freedom given to us through the Constitution. There is a rich sense of freedom lived and share in our little Vermont Community.

We are also happy to announce that we have a new, colorful and awesome collection of adult and children long sleeve SPF50 tee shirts for sale. These tee shirts have a tendency to disappear quickly so make sure you are there early to purchase the color that pleases you! There are many other offerings to purchase as well. Children especially treasure the stuffed mammoth!

And lastly, we are excited to share with you a marvelous surprise to be viewed in the town Parade. Just be there and enjoy some Mount Holly History!

Apply Now For Community Health's New MA Training Program Starting This Fall

Rutland, VT – Beginning this September, Community Health will welcome a new group of trainees into its Community Health Career Program, offering a direct pathway to a full-time career in healthcare.

Applications are now being accepted for the 25-week Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) training program. The program is open to individuals with a high school diploma or GED and a passion for helping others. No prior healthcare experience is required.

"We are committed to investing in workforce development in our community, and growing local talent within Community Health," said Tracy Upton, RN, Director of Clinical Operations.

Selected applicants will be hired as full-time Community Health employees, receiving benefits and competitive wages while completing the program. Upon successful completion of the training and passing the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) CCMA certification exam, participants will transition into Medical Assistant roles across Community Health's network of clinics.

"Our goal is to remove the barriers for those interested in healthcare careers," said Upton. "We've created a career path that offers an alternative to the traditional college route, while still leading to a meaningful, long-term profession."

The 25-week program combines classroom instruction, simulation-based learning, and hands-on clinical experience. Trainees will develop skills in taking vital signs, assisting providers during procedures, supporting patients throughout their visits, administering injections, performing lab tests and coordinating care and scheduling.

In partnership with Vermont State University, the program integrates classroom and online learning with clinical training across Community Health's medical, Express Care, pediatric, geriatric and behavioral health practices.

"We're looking for individuals with a strong work ethic, flexibility and a commitment to professionalism," Upton said.

Training takes place weekdays 8:00 am to 4:30 pm at Community Health's Allen Street training center in Rutland. Trainees must have reliable transportation to travel to various clinical sites needed.

Graduating high school seniors, individuals exploring alternatives to a traditional college pathway, and those seeking a career change into healthcare are encouraged to apply.
