This spring we started offering compostable cups and paper products at coffee hour—and the trash can in Sue Dickerman Hall has been converted to a compost collector. With this change we hope to have waste-free coffee hour and events. (Of course, if you can bring your own travel mug that is even better, and you […]

Kermit’s Korner: Local Agriculture

Bank money helped defray the cost of our special lunch bunch with food supplied by the Saxonville Mills coffee shop, and also was used to purchase special new folders used by our choir to hold their music. We had one donation last […]
