Join us for an evening of connection and good food at our Community Garden at King Farm! We’ll gather at the garden to share a meal, enjoy each other’s company, and soak in the beauty of summer. The evening will include a relaxed garden tour and an update on future projects at King Farm. We will be joined by a member of the Vermont Land Trust to discuss planned renovations to buildings, and by staff of the Woodstock Union High School’s CRAFT Program, which plans to expand its campus to King Farm. When: Tuesday, July 22nd 6:30-8 PM You are welcome to join us for the entire event, or just drop in to say "hi" and see the garden!

The Town of Woodstock has been awarded a $868,858.52 grant to upgrade our municipal drinking water system! These funds will replace the water main damaged in 2023, that has "temporarily" run across the Elm Street Bridge since the floods (pictured here) and fund a new well to increase capacity. Our Shared Energy Coordinator Harry Falconer is responsible for this grant. The Energy Coordinator position was created thanks to the advocacy of Sustainable Woodstock's leadership in 2020. Today the role is guided by a steering committee that Sustainable Woodstock sits on. This is what investing in long-term planning and sustainability looks like! (fb)
