FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY

PHOTO CALENDAR CONTEST

INFORMATION AND APPLICATION

The Photo Calendar contest is a new event sponsored by the Friends of the Fletcher Memorial Library. The Friends are developing a 2027 Calendar which will feature photos of Ludlow and be sold in the Fall of 2026. All proceeds will be used to support the library. We are looking for photos that showcase some aspects of Ludlow: our beautiful mountains, lakes, flowers, wildlife, and quaint village are all ideas that come to mind. Ludlow is beautiful in all four seasons! The competition is open to all amateur photographers. We welcome photos from our residents as well as neighboring towns, second homeowners and visitors who love our town as much as we do!

An independent panel of judges will pre-screen all submitted photos to narrow them down to 24 semi-finalist photos. The 24 semi-finalist photos will be voted on by the public during the week of August 10-15. Photos will be displayed in Fletcher Memorial Library, and ballots can be obtained from the front desk.

Rules of the contest:

  • All submissions must depict some aspect of Ludlow. The photo is required to be an 8X10 nonglossy photo using landscape orientation.
  • It should be unframed and unmounted.
  • Only 1 photo is accepted per photographer.
  • Photos can be dropped off at Fletcher Memorial Library
    • or mailed to: Fletcher Memorial Library at 88 Main St. Ludlow, VT 05149.
    • Attention: Friends of the Library.
  • The contest begins April 13. Photos must be submitted no later than July 13, 2026.

Maple Monday!

Happy Monday!

Before we do anything else, we just have to say — thank you. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who joined us at the sugar house and farm stand this past weekend for our Maple Open House. The barn tours, the boiling, the sampling — it was everything we hoped for and more, and that's entirely because of YOU. Whether you're a familiar face or someone we were meeting for the very first time, having you here at our family sugar house meant the world to us. Thank you for carving out time in your busy day to come share in something we love so deeply.

Now, on to this week's recipe!

Spicy Maple Walnuts These sweet and spicy little gems are about to become your new favorite thing. They come together with simple pantry staples and just a few minutes of hands-on time — which means no excuses not to try them! Keep a batch around for snacking, toss them on top of yogurt, or package them up in a cute little Mason jar for a gift that people will absolutely love. Trust us, once you make them you'll want to keep a batch on hand at all times!

And as always, our website is open around the clock for all your maple needs — syrup, almonds, candy, cream, and sugar. Bring a little taste of Vermont home to your family. You shop, we ship!
