Happy Maple Monday, friends! It's officially berry season here in Mount Holly, and if you've got raspberries on the brain (or in your fridge), we've got the perfect way to use them. This week we're sharing our No-Churn Maple Raspberry Ice Cream — creamy maple ice cream swirled with a fresh raspberry sauce, no ice cream maker required. Just a bowl, a whisk, and a little freezer patience. It's the kind of dessert that disappears fast at a summer cookout. 👉 Get the full recipe here A couple tips: don't have raspberries on hand? Swap in blueberries or blackberries — whatever is ripest. Visit your local berry farm, farmers market or farm stand to get the best of the best! And of course, it all starts with good syrup, so grab a bottle of our pure Vermont maple syrup. Order online and we'll ship to you and your family, or grab it in person when visiting the farm stand — either way, it's the same wood-fired syrup our family's been making for seven generations. Head to plewfarm.com to shop. Stay cool out there, and happy scooping! |

Day 10 Lost Dog (note she is golden colored not white).
She has not been sighted or found but it was a good day. Carmen Brothers canine (www.professionalpettrackers.com) were on sight today to track her scent with their nationally recognized dog Finley. Indeed Finley found her scent and she is very much still in the area. Please help me by keeping your eyes and ears open. She is near Healdsville Road.
DO NOT CHASE, call her or feed her! If you see her, simply report her to the Central VT Canine Recovery CVCR at 802-357-3755 ASAP.
I may be asking those of you in the area if I can set up a feeding station and camera to catch her on camera. I will enter your drive and honk. If you choose not to come out, no problem.....I'll leave a flyer on your car.
The Recovery organizations tell me this is not unusual and her recovery could take weeks. She's still likely to be hiding. If you could look in your shed, garage, barn or under the deck. She may also be spotted on your trail cam or Ring cam.
When she is found I will let everyone know here and will take down all the signs. |
